I haven’t posted here in quite a while. Several weeks, at the very least. Perhaps months. But now, with this pandemic and so much free time on my hands, I find myself wanting to get several things accomplished I planned on previously.
That’s where the days seem to have become so empty, long and boring. I’m not able – or allowed – to go anywhere. I’m at home, in my office
At least they are for me most of the time. I didn’t realize how very busy I am on a daily basis. Even with a life as boring as mine is. Sure, I prefer to stay in one place – the Tim Hortons in town – but I like to do other things, too.
Well, sometimes I do. But for the most part places I like to go are closed. Or at least not open as much. The Tim Hortons, for instance, no longer allows people to sit down and stay for a while as they enjoy their coffee and more. I’m not even certain if anything other than the drive-thru is open right now.
**Okay. So once again it’s been a while since I wrote in here. My bad.
Something I’ve thought of numerous times but never wrote down is that God has a reason for this pandemic. Sure, we find it almost impossible to deal with. But perhaps the Lord allowed it to happen because He wants His children to return their focus to Him.
He dislikes our suffering as much – perhaps more – than any of us. Particularly when people die. People dying isn’t even close to what He wants to see happening.
God created man without sin. But guess what man did? He messed up. Hugely. Royally. The first man made a choice that would forever place every single human being after him in a perilous position. To my knowledge, only one or two men after him didn’t experience death the way we all do.
