Being stuck at home to stay safe from COVID 19 is making me lazy. I no longer have to wake up early since I can work in my jammies. Most of those things I once rushed around for no longer exist. I am spending some of my excess time searching internet sites and watching TV.

I am restless, bored, and need something to satisfy me. When I spend my energy seeking entertainment, my heart gets empty. A slower pace is not my biggest problem. I need to devote more time to draw closer to Jesus.

Lamentations 3:22-23 is “The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin fresh every morning.

Holy Bible, New Living Translation, 2015

God’s love is guiding me through this storm. I have better days when I wake up earlier to focus on Him. I am grateful the Lord is faithful and never leaves me alone. During the worst of times, I find blessings when I look. God will carry me through this mess and strengthen my faith.
