Such a Time

 

Covid test negative. Whew. It feels like the noose is tightening, as my Mom tested positive (no symptoms, praise God!), Joey tested positive (a week after they moved out and into Aberdeen), Bible study friends have tested positive. Fortunately everyone seems to have Covid-light.

Was I born for such a time as this? Yes. God’s timing is always perfect. So were you. May we all build ourselves up in Christ, strengthening our stature to carry the callings he has on our lives.

The sun beams coolly out of a pale blue sky this morning. A breeze ruffles the dry grass and bare branches. A red kite out-manoeuvres two disappointed crows in claiming some tasty bites in the field.

This is the day the Lord has made. I am grateful to be alive, at such a time as this.
