Poem
Cognizant of COVID 19 and its harsh impact on global welfare it has seriously attacked midst health threats with economic sabotage as grievous fact… we pray: Oh, God, enable us so we can with Your peace, rightfully react. Gripped by this novel pandemic causing us to fear, worry, and panic leading hearts to become pathetic or pessimistic… we ask: Oh God, intensify our hope as we trust You to heal* the sick. Trusting Your supreme hand over global changes and every country believing Your omniscience upon signs of times in world history acknowledging Your perfect will against this current misery… we trust You oh, God, to keep us shielded inside Your compassion’s victory. Exposed to separation-angst of those fellows within “lockdown” witnessing community quarantine for affected city and town experiencing difficulties brought by this virus with so-called crown… we plead: Oh, God, uphold our faith; cheer us midst our frown. Informed, warned and educated to stay calm above this grim reality vanquishing fake news, but spreading kindness, marked by sincerity intensifying hygienic practice for safety beyond selfish purity… we cling to You, oh, God Who is control of the situation by Your sovereignty. *2Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. March 16, 2020 Edited on December 30, 2021 4th place, "Coronavirus (COVID-19)" Poetry Writing Premiere Contest Sponsored by Robert James Liguori; judged on 12/31/2021.
