A few simple encouragements: - We God's people have a legacy of thriving when things get dicey and the bible is full of solidarity and instruction for times like these. - Curse the virus, but don't curse the time. The time belongs to God. - Consider what gifts will you carry forward from this time - Consider what false identities, comforts, and other shakable things you will leave behind - Remember your and our story. There is a danger of assimilation into the nations, so... - Remain a people God has called out to live with Him at the center - Stay connected with faithful intentionality - The next season will look different; hold to the essentials - Don't worry: God has made provision in Jesus for your failure and the story we are living is the answer to our prayer for the kingdom to come.
