![]() There is nothing about a million people dying from COVID-19 that God is happy about. God knows, and it is not the way He wants things. God knows exactly what is happening in every part of the globe, right down to what is happening in my small province or your city or the life of those around you. There is nothing that is beyond his scope or vision. God knows the current state of the world. And that COVID-shaped world isn’t going anywhere any time soon.Īs I’ve thought about it all afternoon, this is what this verse speaks to me now. ![]() Everyone is sick and tired of this COVID and the world that it has shaped for us. Everyone is feeling defeated on some front. To say that there is an overwhelming feeling of discouragement in the air, would be to completely ignore the air. Or cities throughout the world that dwarf us for the population. I can’t imagine what the larger provinces are dealing with. And then there is the venomous battle between the vaxxed and unvaxxed.Īnd this is a province with less than a million citizens. Many people feel as though our provincial government is not doing enough to keep people safe or help those that are deathly ill. The vaccinated and unvaccinated are filling up the hospitals. I know that isn’t a lot, but there aren’t a lot of people here either. ![]() There were another 25 or so deaths related to COVID-19 in the province I live in here in Canada. ![]() That begs the question, what kind of reflection are you going to write now? Maybe it is just me and the circles that I have been in that have caused me to have a somewhat jaded approach to Jeremiah 29:11. A name it and claim it standby verse to prove that you can expect everything to go well. How it has been manipulated to be a health and wealth gospel motto. When life sucks.īut for a believer, chances are great that you have heard someone talk or preach about how this verse is so often used out of context. This verse is one of the most frustrating verses ever.īecause we use it for almost everything all the time. For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. ![]()
