Safe from Pan[dem]ic

 

COVID-19 has not been officially declared a pandemic. Is it time to panic?

According to Science News:

 

“The last time that the WHO declared a pandemic was in 2009, for a then-novel H1N1 strain of influenza, which some researchers estimate infected 1 billion people in the first six months, and killed hundreds of thousands in its first year. By comparison, over 2,700 people have died from COVID-19 since it emerged in December.

“The Spanish Flu of 1918 is the worst pandemic in recent memory; it claimed the lives of at least 50 million people worldwide from 1918 to 1919.”

What does the Bible say?

Isaiah 49:10 (NIV)
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Panic, no. Pray, yes!

I will not fear bad news, Lord, because You are in control.
I will not fear travel restrictions, because You are always with me.
I will not fear shrinking investments, because You are my treasure.
I will not fear sickness, because You are my healer.
I will not fear death, because You are my life.
I am safe in Your hands.
