In response to my blog post of this morning I received the following inspiring email which I am sharing with the permission of the writer.

You may know that my daughter is an ER nurse working the front line of this virus without ceasing to shelter in place.  She took the Covid-19 test yesterday and is awaiting the results.  She has, of course, had multiple instances of exposures.  Although I know that she has had exposure, I trust and believe that she is well and will be well.  We have been boosting her immune system for weeks and foremost we fully trust G-d for His promises on her life and His Grace and Mercy.

The picture below is very reflective of the place where many of us rest.  Holding on to faith/hope and perched looking for the beauty of life more abundantly.  As I rest on a hard, rough and jagged spot, I, too, choose to focus on the beauty of color and the vibrancy of life the and creativity it represents that is much greater than man.  Life may be different, approached differently … but all will be well and we will once again reunite with family, friends and colleagues!!

Remain encouraged because you are in a position of posturing encouragement to many.
