This is not a competition

This is not a completion Ephesians 2;8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. There is no reason to boast and rave over how awesome you are doing at this and how much better you are than someone else. How you quarantine and survive this pandemic is not scored and measured by how awesome you are. It’s not scored by how much money you have saved in your account, how much food you have stocked up, how fit you have been maintaining by exercising 15 hours a day,, how strict your schedule has been or even how much you pray. Trust me I know someone didn't like that. But it’s real. All those things don’t save you from being exposed and infected. They definitely will help and are great resources in a time like this. This is a time to become United with one another, this is a time to lift up one another, this is a time to help one another, this is the time to pray with one another and for one another. Tearing someone else down for not living the way you're living it helps, Judging and criticizing the way people are responding to this pandemic is not helping. We have all a task, purpose, talent, gift and strength that can help someone else. We each can be essential. This is not a competition, we all have something that each other needs. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13: 35
