I want to take a moment during this unprecedented time to offer a word of encouragement.
With many parts of our nation literally shutdown, and all of us practicing the newly acquired skill of social-distancing, we are all trying to do our part in loving our neighbor through careful responsibility.
At the same time, these are the times that define us as followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. Based upon His unbreakable promises, for those in Christ, we have nothing to fear. The Psalmist singing praises to the Lord says:
“…in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them” (Psalm 139:16 ESV).
No virus determines the number of your days—or mine—only God can do that.
I urge you to continue being a faithful steward of what God has given you, first by continuing to tithe to your own church—which has not stopped working though you may not be meeting together publicly. And if you will allow me,
I ask that you not forget this ministry either. America needs the truth of God’s Word more than ever.
By God’s grace, we will make it through the trial of this viral pandemic. And when things begin to return to normal, we will still have a watershed national election ahead of us.
