Text of Video:

Hey everyone, hope you’re doing well. It’s been a while since I’ve videoed with y’all and it’s because I haven’t been sure what to say. I mean this COVID-19 thing has everything turned upside down.

But we’re doing pretty well. I can’t complain. God is still blessing us in so many ways. And I know there are many, many others who are hurting or having a tough time, and right now it seems like when there’s finally hope on the horizon, that we’re slowly starting to reopen again, that a lot of people’s anxiety is just coming out now.

Maybe it’s the hope of the new things or the new normal. Maybe it’s the fear of the unknown or the uncertainty of it all. I’m not sure. Part of me feels guilty because as I said my husband and I are doing pretty well. My husband calls that wasted guilt. And I think that’s true. We’re doing our best to help others.

So, if you’re in a good place where you can help others where you can contribute, where you can just be kind, do that. If you’re in a place where you’re hurting or you’re anxious, where the COVID-19 has hit you hard, then be prayerful that reach out.

There are others who want to help you who. There are others who want to walk along beside you. Just remember, we’re not alone You’re not alone. God’s still here, and God brings people into our lives to help each other.

Most important, let’s be kind. Let’s reach out to one another. Let’s get through this. Let’s find our new normal or find the old normal and figure it out together. Trust the path, whether you agree with things opening up or not. If you don’t agree you don’t have to go out and if you’re ready to get out and get out but please be safe.

Again, let’s just be kind to one another and help one another and lift each other up, we’ll talk to you soon. Take care.
