Good morning!

How could I pray for you?

We’re living in uncertain times. I’d like to say that our regularly scheduled programming has simply been on vacation and will be back shortly, but our rapidly changing surroundings lead me to the conclusion that I am completely unaware of what is to come in the next few weeks.

I don’t know when this will all be over. I don’t know when the movie theatres and arcades and HomeGoods will open again. I don’t know when hospitals will go back to their normal capacities, and when hand sanitizers will go back on the shelves.

However, I do know this: even in the midst of a pandemic, God is good. If there’s one thing I know, it’s that He was, is, and always will be good, regardless of circumstances.

In the Books of Moses, there was a similar pandemic, caused by snake bites, and the children of Israel were stricken by fear, but God had Moses raise up a bronze snake, a symbol of hope, healing, and life, and those who turned their eyes towards it lived through the chaos.

This morning, I just want to encourage you to look to God — or continue looking to Him — in the midst of uncertainty, and offer my time to you as I once again ask, How could I pray for you?

Feel free to send prayer requests my way anytime, I promise to pray for you.

God bless you, have a great rest of your week!

— David
