Good Morning,
"These are the times that try men's souls" is a quote from Thomas Payne in his book The American Crisis first published in 1776. Each of us face crises in our life. Many times they are personal. This time, it is corporate. We are all involved.
We live in a society where we have all have significant control over our lives and how we live them. It is so easy to begin to think, especially in an affluent society, such as we have been experiencing throughout our lives, that we have total control over everything. We become thinking that nothing can stop us.
Suddenly, seeming from out of nowhere, comes a microscopic organism that turns the entire world upside down that makes us feel totally helpless. How about, rather than panicking, we turn to the one who is really in control. No I don't mean our government. Like us, they are mere mortals doing their best. I'm talking about our Creator, the one who has gotten this world through numerous crises successfully.
Maybe, this should be a wake up call for all of us. Let us turn back to Him and remember, we can accomplish much if only we follow His lead and not try to do it all ourselves.
Stay safe and help others to do the same.
Jim
