There is one timeless, comforting, element that mankind clings to when their lives and worlds are threatened, this priceless jewel we possess is HOPE. There is one certain hope, and we can say with total confidence, “My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.” Jesus is our only hope. It is hope with confidence, as Jesus word never fails. Our Holy Bible contains a record of mankind’s trials, tribulations, dark days and crying out with tears of HOPE to their listening God for help, and in each instance, the prayers of hope were answered. Jesus Christ will hear our prayers of hope. His death on the cross for our sins, and resurrection, we acknowledge at Easter, is the answer to all hope and prayers. He will bring us through this and any other misfortune we may encounter. Ps. 91:9 “Because you have made the Lord your refuge, the Most High your dwelling place, no evil will befall you, no scourge come near your tent. For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” Our resurrected Savior will be our hiding place until the COVID-19 passes by. Just look up at Jesus on the cross with supreme faith, COVID-19 will pass away, but Jesus, our Savior, is for all eternity, the answer to every hope. Isolate, wash your hands and just spread God’s word!
