Don't Isolate Others In Our Isolation

Our great state Tennessee, as maybe yours, has called for greater commitment to self-isolation.  It is warranted, unprecedented and prudent, however, we cannot allow ourselves, especially those of faith, to isolate our love and concern from those who most need it.  We must remain faithful to be Christ’s ambassadors in the world He has placed us.  We do not have to have physical contact in order to do this, Christ’s healing of the Centurion’s son is a good example of Him being present in healing without the necessity of being there physically.  One of our greatest gifts of God is Facetime, Zoom and other forms of reaching out.  Allow those who are under your watch care to know you haven’t forgotten them, to make Christ’s presence in you, His presence in their lives.  Share His love and concern, stand outside their doors, homes, and windows and let them see you and you see them and know that we are all in this together, those of faith and those that He longs to faith Him.  God will get us through this but as is always the case, He wants us to help.
