Chris' Christian Blog

September 3, 2020

My brother and I have been having a debate about this Covid-19 crap. He feels justified in not wearing his mask. He says Jesus will keep him from getting sick.

I tell him that I do not wear a mask to keep me from getting sick. I wear it to prevent me from being a carrier and spreading it to others.

The question is "Is there any way of changing a hard heart and a hardhead? What can we do to help people see the light?

I have dealt with stubborn, unreasonable people for decades. If there is a magic bullet, I haven't found it. I do have to say though that Jesus dealt with similar people and he is our example. His example was to point out the error of their logic and leave it at that.

Read the above item.
Go placidly amid the noise and thy haste and remember what peace there may be silence. Use this line in your Blog entry today.

There is a lot of peace in silence. Sometimes I don't think we really long for peace as much as we do the distraction. I know I do. I'd rather escape into "busyness" than be captive with my own thoughts.

Prompt: "WDC is celebrating 20. What event in the last 20 years brings you the most joy? Birthday, anniversary, graduation, marriage, new job, publication, joining WDC a trip,...... just tossing some ideas out..."

Two events in the past twenty years have brought me the most joy. The birth of my son and my sobriety.
