Y’all know that I do a blog for your
Edification, exhortation, and consolation
And I choose subjects about situations
That are of concern to single individuals,
Or at times, to the world's nations.
Right now, though we are in the
Midst of a searing pandemic,
We take solace from the fact that
We received the answer to many prayers
About COVID-19 that asked for a vaccine in hand
That would stop the carnage
That is wreaking havoc across our lands.
Now, we are in holding mode
Awaiting our turn for our vaccination
While giving thanks to GOD
For our deliverance from this blight;
But, I just wanted to ask you
A question or two, if I might
Do you give thanks for the vaccine
Each day or each night
Do you pray for healthcare workers
Who are dealing daily with this virus situation
Do you pray for folks that
Have lost their wages
Do you pray for families that
Had loved ones that lost their Coronavirus fight
Do you pray for ample supplies
Necessary for the people’s vaccinations?
And one last question I would like to pose to you
How has the virus affected
The things that you do;
Do you pray a lot more
Than you used to
Do you attend worship more often
Do you talk about, with thanksgiving,
The goodness of GOD
To any man who will listen
As you go on, with heightened awareness,
About this business of living?
Just a couple of questions that I had
And I wanted to pose them to you
About how this virus has affected
The things that you do.©
Walking by faith,
