God bless you! Although I had been posting on Instagram, it’s been a while since I posted here on my blog, and what better time than now!
First for some updates! Here where I live we are doing good, God is so good. Even though of course, the current situation can seem scary at times, God is our provider. My family and I praise God, are all healthy, of course following government directions and remaining indoors. This has been such an amazing time to get back with the Lord, and back to doing things I really enjoy (which happen to be mostly introvert/ indoorsy activities lol).
I really feel like the Lord is using this Coronavirus to give us a chance to come closer to Him. He is calling us, & it’s been a blessing to me personally. He has removed all of the distractions from our lives that I know have some significance, but in the grand scheme of things, they really do not matter at all. It is forcing families to be together and spend time with one another. It is forcing us to look into ourselves, to do some introspection. To come to terms with the things that we may be doing wrong and are not pleasing to God, but we are always too busy to even ask God and wait for an answer. We are constantly too busy and distracted, going mindlessly from one thing to another, that we forget to stop and take care of the things that really matter.
Now we have this time. Let’s use it the wisest way possible. It’s a chance to ask Him to light that fire within us again. Make the most out of this time, and EACH DAY going forward, INVEST in your relationship with the Lord!
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, but lose his soul?
Mark 8:36
I hope you are all doing well, please feel free to leave a comment & let me know how you are doing! God bless you!
Xoxo, Melanie
PS- I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but there is a PLETHORA of online messages, services, bible studies online!! All at our fingertips! Use this time to grow in the Lord!
