Taking inspiration from the words of a wise man who once said and I quote "Winners are the people who, when the odds are stacked against them and those around them have fallen, will have the courage to look within themselves and make the unbelievable believable, and the impossible possible"It seems everything in this life starts with darkness. The Christian Bible gives an account in Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. The Creator called light out of the darkness and we can safely say that everything God began to put in order, that he later called good was hidden in the darkness.
The world today is experiencing one of the waste cases of darkness, the kind that has left even the most powerful nations with nowhere to run and desolate trying to survive. The kind nobody could have anticipated in the guise of a deadly virus with a name that rhymes with the word Crown. The virus has broken through the shield of the world's most advanced technologies like child-play and almost bringing the world economy to a standstill.
Everyone now is asking the question of what happened and how could we not have seen this strain of virus coming. This may not be even the time to start trying to interpret the scenarios and after-effects of the corona devastation with subtle Sudo blame games. We should rise above blame games because no matter who we think is to blame, we still have to suffer the consequences. Therefore, its time to pool our energies together and do what we can do without worrying about the things that are beyond our control. This is no time for any so-called prophet to try and explain God or the devil's hand in this. It is time to do what humanity is supposed to do in times like this. We mourn our compatriots who have gone but we honor the departed with what and how we rise above the devastation and tragedy so that their death is not in vain.
When Darkness dawns on our doorsteps, it is time to look through it and find the light hidden in darkness that moves us even higher. Darkness never leaves until light dawns because the Light will always subdue the darkness. Our greatest triumphs in life are never devoid of hardships or tragedies. Let us take comfort in the fact that God will never allow circumstances beyond our ability to handle to subdue us. Everything we need, God already built it inside of us the ability to overcome and there is no problem that God has not already made a provision for. We should continue to pray for God's comfort but we should never neglect thinking because it is in the thinking process that our God-given hardware (the brain) and software (the mind), help our intellect to compute and deal with scientific problems like the one we have now. We may all not be scientists but we can pray and send positive vibrations that scientific solutions find their way to the Scientific minds for a remedy. Remember that God never created a Chair but He created a Tree and thinking pulled a chair out of a tree.
Let us not concentrate on the pain but let us take valuable lessons from this episode to carry through to our future. Humanity did not quit in the Face of past plagues and HIV/AIDS. Let us look to the strength that God has provided for within us and make the unbelievable believable and the impossible possible
We should not quit NOW because we don't QUIT
