A Covid-19 Prayer of blessing
Today, the day we bury the honorable Congressman John Lewis, a Civil Rights Movement hero, we are reminded we are still in the throes of a global pandemic. This week we surpassed 150,000 dead Americans. That's the population of Peoria, Illinois, and more than those who died in Hiroshima from the atomic bomb. It's been hard for me to wrap my brain around it. It's unfathomable.Here, I offer encouragement and prayer for first responders, medical staff, nurses, doctors, victims and surviving families. I also have lost people to the careless indignation of our sitting white supremacist who clearly has no regard for human life. In Deuteronomy 30:19 God tells us to "choose life." No believer, IMHO, is for death, much less death on a scale matched only by Nazi Germany. Let's stand for life and life more abundant. I'm using my platform. I'm fighting for my children's grandchildren. How about you?Please accept my heartfelt condolences. I am praying for all of you from one American citizen to another and all others. I will not tire in fighting for what's right. Ever.
