ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
Welcome back to my praises faith friends. Thank you so much for joining me today. 
Today, I want to encourage you that better days are coming, and how do we overcome what we may be feeling as being fearful, the unknown, and how to activate our faith in order to get through this pandemic? Well, let me just tell you, I've said these were hundreds of times before, maybe even thousands of times, especially during this pandemic, but I have to say, I've had so many but God moments in my life where there is no other explanation for what has happened in my life, but for God. God saved me. He spared me, he helped me to survive childhood abuse, he's brought me through a health scare while living in a third world country, high-risk pregnancies. I could go on and on, but you know, at that very moment during those times, I mean, in the midst of it all, when I wanted to give up, I wanted to give me an even said, let the chips fall where they may. You know what I'm talking about. Sometimes when we're in the middle of a crisis, we're in the middle of being overwhelmed, we're in the middle of feeling feelings of fear and things of that nature, especially during the times that we're in right now currently, sometimes on the inside, we wonder our better days coming, and then it's like our spirit diaries up and says, you know what, better days are coming, if you just hang on in there, don't give up, don't give in.
Ready? Let's get started... 
 
SHOWNOTES:
•  Hello pandemic! Under the weight of real bills and real medical reports, I need the kind of faith that is not dependent on presumption, I need to kind of face that can deal with some ambiguity, I mean, a faith that can be patient with mystery, the kind of faith that’s not dependent on my plans. (4:22)
•  Because I know God is in control. And he has the whole world in His hands. He really does. So what am I supposed to be doing during this? What I’m calling a pandemic pause. Have you prayed? Do you know your purpose? Have you been preparing, making preparations to get into position for where God wants you to be so that you can do what He’s calling you to do? (6:04)
•  We shouldn’t want to rush time, first of all, time is going to pass anyway, but in the midst of this pandemic pause, are you praying for God’s direction? Are you leaning into your faith to know what it is you’re supposed to be doing, are you in alignment with your partners, what about preparation? Have you researched how to start that business, have you taken the time to learn a new skill that’s going to aid you and going to the next level in your job, or whatever the case may be, that preparation time? If you could have everything in order, just the way you want it, right? (6:55)
•   During this pandemic pause, are we praying? Do we know our purpose? With clarity, are you aligned with your purpose? Right. Have you made preparations doing those things that you may not necessarily want to do, but know that it’s necessary in order to get to the next place where God wants you, and then are you in position to receive and go forward with the things that God has designed your fingerprint to do. (7:55)
