PAUSE- COVID-19

Fear strikes violently, panic settles in

Running here to there, patience growing thin

Emotions swell, causing a great reaction

Revealing the very nature of ourselves, delicate human fractions

We all created differently, thankfully together we are whole

One may have a weakness here, while another fills that hole

No doubt we need one another, simply to keep our feet upon the ground

Let us love each other, for in the end that’s what will resound

No matter what race, gender, class we will all be affected

Let’s not bash each other at a time like this causing more rejection

At the heart of humanity, we are delicate through and through

So, let’s speak life to one another, In the end I might need you

For but a moment, our lives are put on pause

Take some to reflect, reset, make yourself your cause

We all have things to work on, for none of us are perfect

Take time for yourself, you are worth

Pick up a hobby, journal, blog, sing

We all have different capabilities that we bring

Share on social media, how you truly cope

It may change the life of someone else, it just may give them hope

Blessings near and far, no matter how many miles apart

I pray for you, you pray for me, keeping purity in our hearts

And when we fall short, because I know we will

Ask for forgiveness, extend mercy, practice being still

God’s word says, “Be still and Know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations” 

At such a time in history, this is a great awakening

For we have nothing without faith, hope and love

We are nothing without him, turns our hearts above

Lord I pray that you comfort those whom have lost to this virus 

God grant us wisdom, help our leaders tread upon these waters that seem lifeless

Protect us from harm dear lord, help us remain within the bounds

To prevent the spread of this illness, sending it back into the ground
