The Practical Things We Can Do

I think it’s safe to say that none of us have been through anything quite like this before. So what are some things that will help get us through these days? For some of us (like me), staying in can be really difficult. So, here are some ideas I have come up with.

How about reading a good book? Most of us have books on our shelves just waiting to be read, or maybe reread. One book I would highly recommend for these uncertain times, is Unshakeable Hope by Max Lucado.

And when was the last time you sat down to watch a good movie? There are so many good Christian movies out there! Maybe you have some on your shelf. My all-time favorite is probably War Room. We could use some of that powerful prayer right now! So grab a bag of popcorn and enjoy!

Maybe you just need to step outside your door and enjoy nature that God created for you! In the midst of all this craziness, when I was closing my blinds the other night, I noticed that God was still painting a beautiful sunset for our pleasure!

And don’t forget to reach out to others. I have contacted friends and family that I have not heard from for quite some time, just to make sure they are doing okay. You need to hear from them and they need to hear from you! It’s important to stay close in communication, even though we can’t always be together.

Last, but not least, don’t neglect your time with your Heavenly Father. This won’t last forever, but maybe it’s a good time to take a breath and enjoy life! Remember, He’s got this!!
