Having seen all the destruction, poverty, and otherwise misery in the world, during my 70+ years on this planet, I had given up on there being a God a long time ago. But still holding out hope, I choose to consider myself Agnostic.
Well, it seems I may have just gotten proof, in the form of a deadly virus, analogous to the great flood, which [supposedly] gave us Noah's Ark.
There is no doubt in my mind, if it weren't for Covid-19, and the devastation it has wreaked on the world, particularly in the United States, Donald Trump would have easily won reelection, and continued down a path of destruction and devastation, not to be undone.
There is a saying, which seems wholly appropriate now, the Lord works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform. It doesn't actually come from the bible, but can be loosely (very loosely I might add) interpreted from scripture
“’For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the Lord. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts’” .(Isaiah 55:8-9),
So while unleashing a deadly virus on the planet, to rid the world of a deadly scourge [Donald Trump], wouldn't have been my first thought/choice, it did work!
So who am I to say it wasn't a good plan, albeit a [very] mysterious one, and that there isn't a God?
It's certainly made a believer out of me!
Of course, that doesn't mean I'm letting my guard down just yet. There's still more havoc to be endured, I'm sad to say!
