We are at the 31st day of this madness known as a ‘stay at home’ order. It is the new craze. It’s catching on across the country. Even the globe. You’re not hip if you haven’t joined the action. Nothing like following the herd so people won’t think ill of you. Speaking of which, the country of Sweden is not practicing lock down, and reports in early April show that their numbers are fairly low. They are depending on herd immunity to fight it. Only the elderly and vulnerable are isolated. Maybe that is working for them, and maybe it is something our country should try. Thankfully, I believe many states are about to loosen restrictions and open up their part of America again. I don’t know when my state and area will open up again, or when my employer plans to open back up. I know that I am ready for normalcy again, I’m ready for a lot of normalcy again. Hopefully, it will be a better new normal, not a new normal we will be forced to adjust our way of life.
I’m certainly ready to start road races again. Nothing like a good kick to the lungs and heart to get me moving. The weather is warming up, my feet are aching to hit the road. I can run on my own, and I do. But nothing like a little competition, especially fun beating people a lot younger than me. Before I boast too much, I must remember that I have been beaten by kids who are not even teenagers.
Being patient is very difficult for me right now, as I am sure it is for many. I have to remind myself God speaks of patience often.
Always be humble, gentle, and patient, accepting each other in love.
Ephesians 4:2 NCV
