‘He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence’<\/em>. Psalms 91:1-3
In reading these encouraging verses we realize that they do not promise that believers will never catch or die from a disease. Instead, we have a strong refuge and fortress to enter during times of pandemic. This keeps us from the dread and fear which accompany these times. and the psalmist later encourages us to call upon The Lord, set our love upon Him and and set Him on high. He in turn will satisfy us, deliver us and show us His salvation! O praise the Lord for these precious promises!
We have made it thru the month of March, another month of quarantine for us. After 40 days of zero reported cases of covid-19, Macau is again reporting statistics of imported Corona virus in the territory. Many residents and students have returned from abroad thus causing this new surge of infection. The government and healthcare entities are doing a great job of implementing isolation and quarantine measures regarding individuals entering from abroad, thus reducing the risk of contagion within the local community. A partial sector of the society is back to work, however many are still operating from home. Schools have implemented on line learning classes Meetings, sport and cultural events etc. continue suspended.
At home we continue with our home high school environment. No comments from our one and only student regarding his paradoxical life style\ud83d\ude0a! To keep the morale high between lessons we exercise, sing and play music ! We are able to get out for walks and daily exercise which is a great blessing indeed! Jorge many times fills up the house with sound – music or hammering down some home improvements. We are able to keep in touch with family members thru online apps which is nice as we are now separated in 5 different countries around the globe! All of these practical endeavors help us to stay busy and productive. But we must admit that our Hope comes from the Lord and we got a lot to be thankful for!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
