Day in the life of Covid-19

I saw the sunshine today but was busy keeping warm at work today. 
 The kids were able to play outside, though.  Glad for family able to support us today.

Also proud of John taking the initiative to help out the community the best way he knows how.

Remembering how to breathe

Hi there!  It has been a while. I will take the fact I haven't felt the need to write here the past few years as a good sign.  While we have journeyed through multiple seasons in the past four years, we have found our way somehow.  That is something to be proud of. Now I'm feeling compelled to share my thoughts and experiences again.  There are new challenges, goals, fears, and concerns to discuss.  I am pretty sure there are others out there with similar experiences that need encouragement.  I also know there are those that don't relate, but I want to share my perspective to maybe broaden some views. There are a lot of suggestions of changes for our world right now.  Some are pretty scary and others could possibly be good.  Finding the balance between holding our breath and taking in a deep breath is hard.  The phrase just breathe just doesn't cut it these days.

It is scary outside

I sat outside on my porch today to enjoy the sunshine.  We rode our bikes to school to drop off a library book.  I saw my neighbors outside talking with each other.  It was scary. Anyone else starting to fear going outside?  The warm weather coaxes us out of our home after six months of winter.  The sunshine gives a sense of wellbeing.  But it isn't safe.   I go back and forth on how I hope the government will proceed with the Stay at Home order on May 1st.  Summer activities will be helpful for the kids, but I am unsure of the risk.  The economy needs a boost, but will we come back together too soon? The night sky is currently rumbling with thunder, but it doesn't scare me. There are other more dangerous things to worry about.

Creative, New, Different, Uncomfortable

Today was a different kind of Sunday.  I still got up early to sing with the choir.  But instead of singing before a full congregation, it was with 22 other individuals coming together to lead an online worship experience.  I must confess that I almost turned around and went back home.  I was unsure of the risks I was taking going out into the world.  Any yet, I was reminded to not be afraid.  So I went. I sang.  I heard the Word spoken and was reminded of the truth.  We heard that God will give us rest in the middle of the wilderness.  I cried at the words that "death has no hold on me".  God is good. The snow of yesterday quickly melted away.  We are trying to encourage the kids outside as much as we can.  Today involved campfires and roller skates.  Who knows what they will come up with tomorrow.  I am still trying to decide how much people interaction is good right now for the kids. Our pastor said th...
