Getting Back To Normal

When will things get back to normality, many a folk do ask? We are weary of wearing these unpleasant Covid-19 masks! In actual reality, getting back to normal is an oxymoronic claim. Perpetuality is our normality, the continuous state of change. Normal is a subjective place with its many shades of grays. A tangled web is normal to the spider but chaos as it preys. Normal is an illusion delusion or a setting on the coffee pot. What appears normal at a distance, viewed up close, is not! Normal is a creation of the mind, never was ordained by God. Is it God’s will for us to return to normal’s phony, fake façade? Normal is a world so boring, cloaked in a dimly-glazed hue. “In Christ, old things pass away; all things are made new!” Normal isn’t really normal; it’s just something you’re used to. If it looks like we’re getting back to normal, it’s only deja vu. Strife in America is the new normal, scornful of others’ ideas. Normal as we know it is not coming back, but Jesus Christ is:)~
