Happy 100th millionth day of COVID-19
Pandemic.
I want to share some things that have been on my heart for
the last few weeks.
Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate; for the
gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many
who enter through it. 14 For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads
to life, and there are few who find it.”
Not a day goes by that I haven’t thought of this
scripture. Maybe it’s God’s way of
reminding me not to follow the masses.
The whole COVID-19 hasn’t sat right in my Spirit since the
beginning. When I have a strong
conviction that something isn’t right or doesn’t make sense, I seek wisdom and
revelation from Above, not the media or world leaders. I am a Truth Seeker, I stand up for
Righteousness and fight for Justice. I
was born this way, it’s part of my DNA, it is who I am.
So, in the last month I have turned to social media to voice
my concerns, thoughts, and opinions. Freedom
of speech, right? This has come with a cost.
It has cost me business and sadly friends. One thing is for sure
COVID-19 has done it’s best to create division among the people and it
certainly has revealed one’s character.
My posts have been attacked with ugly, disrespectful, name-calling
comments. I do my best to delete them as
quickly as I can. I won’t tolerate that kind of language on my timeline. My
timeline is not going to be a platform for argument and debate. I’ve received hateful threatening messages in
my inbox from people I haven’t even met nor are they in my friend’s list.
I also receive messages in my inbox and text daily, really
more than I can keep up with sometimes, of people sending links and information
that they want me to share, of people rallying for me and encouraging me on
this journey, some who have admittedly said they don’t want to lose family and
friends so they remain quiet, and many of these people are complete strangers
to me. I want every one of you to know
how much I appreciate the love and support you are showing me. It’s your encouragement and faith that keeps me going some days.
There are people that are fearful of this virus and want the
Stay Home order to continue. And then
there are those that believe the shutdown never should have happened. Here’s where character and Love step up. Although we differ in opinion or belief, I
will continue to honor and respect your choice. What I won’t tolerate is being
attacked. It is in times like this,
under pressure, that one’s character is revealed. Let’s make sure it is of love, kindness and
respect for one another. Seriously,
we’ve get too much hate and misinformation from the media and Politicians, if
they can divide us they will conquer us. WE should stand United…WE are the
People! All of us, no matter which side
of the fence we are on, should be demanding the Truth.
Until now I have never considered myself a Patriot, but here
I am. I even purchased my first American
flag to hang on my house last week!
It's time for Patriots to rise up, Push back and Push
hard. For those that can’t, we
understand and will fight for you.
As I was writing this scripture came to me:
James 1:12 Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial;
for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord
has promised to those who love Him.
The Lord is always so good to us.
Be Blessed.
