Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!

Good Morning. It is Good Friday. It marks the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus made for us. It also marks about a month of the Coronavirus Quarantine.

We have been home for a month, since March 12. I have not gone anywhere for a month. Sometimes, I wonder if this Coronavirus is all really happening. Am I caught in some weird science fiction movie? Or, is this a strange dream?

Every morning, I wake up, and it is still happening. It is surreal.

Last night, I dreamt about boiling eggs to dye for Easter. I felt this anxiety, that I hoped, I didn’t mess them up, because I probably would not be able to find more at the store. I can feel the doubts trying to sneak into my thoughts. I have to choose faith each day.

This morning I read in the gospel of Mark, when Jesus said, ““If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

Immediately, the father os the child asking for a miracle cried out, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

Mark9-23-24

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”
–Mark 9:23-24 (NKJV)

And, that is exactly where I am at right now. I have faith. I believe in Jesus. I believe that all things are possible for those who believe. During this Coronavirus Pandemic, my mantra will be, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”
