On My Mind: There Is Nothing New Under The Sun

"The thing that has been-it is what will be again,

and that which has been done is that which will be done again;

and there is nothing new under the sun."

Ecclesiastes 1:9

Coronavirus

I decided to write this post tonight after reading comments and hearing
 a lot of negative reaction to President Trump's news conference yesterday
from those attempting to politicize the Coronavirus epidemic.

 First of all,  Donald Trump is not perfect. Who is?

He is also not a disease pathologist with the CDC or a miracle worker.

He is the President of the United States of America and at yesterday's

news conference he reiterated more than once that his greatest concern

was protecting the American people and keeping everyone safe

during this latest worldwide crisis.  Regardless of what
the news media or Nancy Pelosi has to say, I believe our president.

 I ask that everyone reading this post to not only realize the enormous
weight of responsibility this man carries daily on his shoulders, but to
 please pray for President Trump to receive the wisdom and guidance 
 of the Holy Spirit in making important decisions for our nation.  

I pray that the Lord will surround our president and his family and 
 members of his administration with a legion of his mightiest warrior 
angels to protect and guard them from all the lies and schemes of the
enemy and his minions, both human and spiritual. Amen.

The passage from the Book of Ecclesiastes above, "and there is

nothing new under the sun" should be a reality check for believers

in understanding the ongoing situation regarding the Coronavirus.

  Pandemics have occurred throughout the course of human history. 

 In addition to the horrible Black Death which swept across Europe 

 and Asia in the mid-1300's, one of the most devastating plagues

of the last century was the dreaded Spanish Influenza of 1918-19.

Some important things to remember:

Be Prepared. 

Stay Alert, Not Anxious

More importantly and above everything else, take all 
your concerns and needs to the Lord in prayer.

a very present and well-proved help in trouble."
