“Life is worth the living because he lives.” One of the great gifts of this quarantine is that we are going to have to become creative in finding ways to living worthily. So much time is spent on our device and in front of our televisions now, but to be placed in their vicinity for several more hours each day will demand that we all become aware of other ways, more meaningful ways to live. I walked out into my yard the other day and said to myself, I could hike this lot full of trees for days discovering all that is beautiful right here. I heard that song just now, “Because He Lives” and it reminded me of that thought the other day, that looking for beauty in nature, even very familiar nature, is “worth the living” if I allow it to give me reason to praise Him, to be with Him, to allow my gratitude to increase. So, rejoice and be glad in this quarantine and find in it a new commitment to living well in the place you are quarantined because even there we are given life that is “worth the living because He lives.”
