I remind myself that the purpose of my column is about people and their relationship with Jesus Christ. With the impact the COVID-19 has had on our world, we now spend less time outside the home. It follows we have more time for reflection, Bible study, and prayer. We can meditate on how we can live in “peace within” no matter what challenges we face. The world is calling believers to be genuine as we “practice what we preach.”
I have held on to the following script Ms. Virginia Benson, a local lady who once came with a friend to Redwood Church, gave me because she thought I might use it one day. Unfortunately, I do not know the original source, and hope he/she will approve of my twist for today’s times:
“God won’t ask what kind of car you drove; He’ll ask how many people you drove who didn’t have transportation.” (You can wear a mask, let the person sit in the back — or give out bus passes or money for taxis.)
