Resilience

The capacity to recover quickly from difficulties will be tested for the next several weeks, months, and possibly years globally. The latest pandemic, CoVid19 has upset and interrupted the daily lives of nearly everyone on the planet. In my current city, Cebu, a quarantine is in effect. Additionally and 8p.m. curfew has been enacted. All places of social gatherings have been closed or operate with limited hours, malls, parks, churches, etc.

Global resilience will be tested. Some will recover more quickly than others and some will use the event as the reason for not recovering entirely.

Today, Wednesday, March 18, 2020, I am grateful that:

All my needs are met today. What I need, I have. What I don’t require, I don’t need at the moment.

The basics are being remembered. During turbulent times it’s easy to remember those things we take for granted on a daily basis. I received a picture today asking for a coordinated prayer asking for healing of the planet. My thoughts went to the time difference and how I’d already missed the prayer time. Next, I thought of Him and how the time, nor the coordinated effort would matter. We are all His favorite! Not one has more impact than any other as His love is without equal or preference. Lastly, time is irrelevant when infinite. It doesn’t matter what time I pray, it matters that I pray.

My realization of resilience has returned. I’ve been in doubt recently. It’s been challenging as of late and I’ve not been doing my best.

I’m feeling more like myself. More confident, more determined, more focused. It’s a great feeling and I’m happy to have that feeling returned.

How will you use CoVid19?

Will it propel you toward your purpose?

What will you change as a result of this event?

How will you behave differently?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
