“We’ve all been exposed.


Not necessarily to the virus. (Maybe…who even knows?)
We’ve all been exposed BY the virus.

Corona is exposing us.
Exposing our weak sides.
Exposing our dark sides.
Exposing what normally lays far beneath the surface of our souls, hidden by the invisible masks we wear.
Now exposed by the paper masks we can’t hide far enough behind.

Corona is exposing our addiction to comfort.
Our obsession with control.
Our compulsion to hoard.
Our protection of self.

  

Corona is peeling back our layers.
Tearing down our walls.
Revealing our illusions.
Leveling our best-laid plans.

Corona is exposing the gods we worship:
Our health.
Our hurry.
Our sense of security.
Our favorite lies.
Our secret lusts.
Our misplaced trust.

Corona is calling everything into question:
What is the church without a building?
What is my worth without an income?
How do we plan without certainty?
How do we love despite risk?

Corona is exposing me.
My mindless numbing.
My endless scrolling.
My careless words.
My fragile nerves.

We’ve all been exposed.
Our junk laid bare.
Our fears made known.
The band-aid torn.
The masquerade done.

So what now? What’s left?
Clean hands.
Clear eyes.
Tender hearts.

What Corona reveals, God can heal.
Come Lord Jesus,
Have mercy on us.”

Excellent Post Soco. Thank you for forwarding that message here.

We are all naked in the sight of God. He holds the mirror of reflection and exposes our hearts.

Wow. I finally agree with you.
Whats left is to realise we all need to change.. All of us.
And stop the war on creation.
We are all part of nature.
We are not seperate from nature.
We are nature.
Money will never cha nge that.
