Wear The Mask

Most of us want things out of our life, and I’m not just talking about calling, “Got Junk”. The virus is still here and we are continuing to live differently just to stay alive. The move to regain some of our freedoms has been disastrous in many other countries. Lucky for us we have people who tell the truth, and that truth, keep us safe and well.

Do I like wearing a mask every time I go out into public? Yes, I do. The possible negative result is not something I would wish on anyone. So, yes there are things we want out of our lives, but masks are not one of them, because those items are the things that can and will protect us from harm.

Over against those things, there are other things we want to never let go of. We want to see our friends, we want to go to school, (well most kids, okay, some kids). We want to socialize because we are social beings. Like some of you, I want to go to church and worship. But, yes, always a but, some of us will have to wait a little longer. Some people think it is freedom they are searching for only to realize that the virus has no freedom, just consequences. I think the most important part of our life that we want back is in relations to people who impact our life for positive way. Dare I say, we want to get together with all the people we love?

Just so you know I believe it will happen. One of our church songs can actually apply here. The song goes: “In His time, In His Time, He makes all things beautiful in His time”. Unfortunately we believe we have been living in a world and a time when we want instant results and everything now. Sorry, not happening. Just wait a little longer, it will.

I believe we have to live with our memories for a time until normality taps us on the shoulder. I look forward to this happening and I pray that everyone I love will still be here to share that special moment. Which reminds me, I started off saying at the beginning of this article, - if we listen to the truth about all of this, and act on that truth, it will give us freedom.  

Jesus talked about this in relations to knowing real and sustainable truth. John writes down Jesus words that have echoed through all the centuries, John 8:32 reads this way, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

Something to think about.
