Fear of the Unknown

One interesting thought. Some of you are old enough to remember Orson Welles and 'War of the Worlds'. One after one, world leaders took to the air waves to address their people about the arrival of the aliens. People were in a state of panic and behaviors changed as a result. That was all people were talking about. All other news was set aside for the coverage of this world wide invasion.

It occurred to me that some 'invaders' cannot be seen. They come in all forms and panic is often the result. We are now experiencing a very real 'invasion'. These invaders cannot be seen, but we know they are there...somewhere!

With the onset of the Corona Virus, there is , indeed other news. It is good news, comforting news, powerful news. That news is... GOD IS STILL HERE, He is present everywhere,and He is still in control.

"So don’t be afraid. I am here, with you;
don’t be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, help you.
I am here with My right hand to make right
and to hold you up."

Isaiah 41:10
