corona virus space and all of us


Our biggest worry, the harm we can do, our biggest threat, the words we use, the door closes, alone in your head, no distractions, can you live with yourself. The shops are closed, the gym is out, what will I do with my time, what about my work, the worries rise, our worries, is there anything we can do about it.
Turn the mind back, to another time, the earth shook, the panic in the hearts, what's happening to us. The man of sorrows on the cross, he was divine they realize, how will we cope with this, tears of despair, how could we allow this, the reflection.
Imagine all those witch hunts, those great causes we thought, voices trying to out do each other, everyone trying to make sense, using crisis after crisis, to get ahead, one over on the rest of us, how clever we thought, then the Corona virus arrives, and we suddenly have time to think about it.
Get up and start again, lessons learned, we need space to think. we can't hitch our lives to the next great panic.

Solomon encountered the Holy Spirit, it came with many gifts, put your trust in me He Said, and everything will be all right. Imagine the sort of inner space you need, for the loving Spirit to be able to reside inside you, imagine the reward for those who are prepared to make that effort. Do you want to expose yourself to every sort of fear, when you can live in peace instead, amen.
