odds & ends for a pandemic

There are lots of strange things in the world, but few stranger, than people who think they can set a date for the end of a pandemic…

I want all the things that are necessary because of COVID-19 to be no longer necessary, as much as everyone else… 

  • I bet Egypt got tired of all those plagues... 
  • I bet Europe got tired of the plague, as well…

In the midst of a pandemic, an election south of the border, and political stuff happening here and in so many other places... 

"Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near. Don’t grumble against one another, brothers and sisters, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!

Brothers and sisters, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. As you know, we count as blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job’s perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy." 

James 5:7-11 NIV
