Where is God in the Pandemic?





The voice of the Lord echoes over the oceans.
The glorious Lord God thunders above the roar of the raging sea, and his voice is mighty and marvelous.
 The voice of the Lord destroys the cedar trees; the Lord shatters cedars on Mount Lebanon.
 God makes Mount Lebanon skip like a calf and Mount Hermon jump like a wild ox.  The voice of the Lord makes lightning flash.

Psalm 29:3-7

How many times have you prayed, "Lord I want to hear Your voice?"  Perhaps the question should be this: How many times have  you heard God's Voice and didn't recognize it?

It is easy to ascribe to nature itself the voice and action of God!  Is the Will of God involved in the storm, the tornado, the hurricane, the tsunami or the flood?   Where is God in the Pandemic?  If God is good and He is All Powerful why does He not stop Evil that moves in the world around us?  

The answer to that and a thousand other questions is beyond our human understanding.  But this you can know for certain: God is at the top of the Pyramid of Power in the  World.  No one and no thing is greater and more powerful than God!  If something exists at all, it is because God is allowing it to be so.  

So when you are troubled by the Evil that touches your life in this World remember that it would not be able to even come near you without God Himself allowing it!  Let God show His power to you and through you as you overcome Evil every day!

"Lord Jesus, the Father used the Evil that came against You on the Cross to accomplish the greatest Good that has  ever or could ever be done on this earth!  May Your Name be praised now and forever.  Amen."
