Disruptions, personal # 1
September 6, 2021
Every person has been impacted by pandemic disruptions. And some turmoil continues. God is neither surprised, or powerless to act in good ways. A major disruption I see is that our self focus is being shaken up. Rather than going out to spend, travel, and attend events, much is shut down. We are shut in with our family in our neighborhood.
Scripture is full of instruction and direction about family care and neighbor relationships. God has brought our focus right back there. Living together 24/7. Creating harmony of necessity. Greeting neighbors. Getting to know them better. Problem solving together, of necessity.
God is at work, not making us comfortable, but making us like Him. Our self focus is disrupted, a good thing. We must focus on our families and care for our neighbors.
