"times such as these"


I think this quote from Martin Luther is very relevant to what is happening now.
This man was born in 1483 and died in1546.
He was a German professor, priest, monk, 
and a seminal figure in the Protestant Reformation.
A very aptly stated Christian response to the pandemic.

When you lose your husband and then have to be quarantined...
A lot to be coped with!
Lots of time to reflect and contemplate where I am and where I'm headed.
Thank You, God, that my life has already been charted out from the beginning of time.
You are sovereign over all!

Give us grace, O Jesus, for "times such as these,"
 that we may respond in a way that would bring honor and glory to You.
 That we would trust You for the future.
That we would rest in the promises of Your word.
That we would love others and help them however we can.

❤️
