Those of us in earthquake-prone areas have spent years preparing for “The Big One.”
As it turns out, it is the tiny one, the smallest creature known to man, a virus, that has brought individuals and whole industries to their knees.
On our knees is where we can truly impact this pandemic COVID-19, the tiny one at the heart.
Prayer is often a side effect of a disaster.
Prayer is not the last resort but the first thing to be done every day and throughout the day.
As we see others or think about others, shoot prayers at them.
There are many resources to improve our situation and the point is that we all need to help each other.
Keep this handy, God’s phone number, Jeremiah 33:3 New American Standard Bible: “Call to me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things which you do not know.”
Help each other by cleaning up our act. Follow best practices to avoid catching or spreading the virus.
See what is behind the mask that some might wear: another person who needs help.
Pray that everyone does these same things.
Pray for miracles in all of our lives.
Many miracles have already occurred.
Just remember that if you don’t see a miracle today, you are not paying attention.
Pay attention: when miracles come, they are not tiny ones.
