Lockdown Day 18 - 13 April 2020
Cleaning house doesn't have to be a schlep. It can be therapeutic. Especially when you can catch up on your favourite youtube posts. Today I want to give a shout out for friendship - the family kind and the friend kind; the kind you will walk barefoot to Timbuktu for. The daily 'non-virus' music, jokes and inspirational teachings you share with me just brighten up my day and before I know it the house is spick and span! Wonder what we would do without internet and social media in a time such as this? My dad used to say "no man is an island". This has never been truer than now. According to grammarist this means that "no one is truly self sufficient - everyone must rely on the company and comfort of others in order to thrive." We need each other and thanks to all the platforms in media it is actually, and of course virtually possible to stay in contact with our people.
It is now more than ever we need encouragement from each other to stay faith-filled, on track and focused. So today, I had two very impromptu conversations over whatsapp video calls, and both were heart warming, leaving me with a feeling of contented joy. To belong is one thing but to survive on that is completely different. It becomes the new normal, the status quo of living life as a part of something much bigger. I know for sure we are here to glorify God, who most definitely created us with a plan in mind. That is why, with our ear pressed to His heart we can rest confidently in His love, because He's got this.
