Your accusation is insulting.

I apologize. That was not my intention.

I apologize. That was not my intention.

Thank you, no problem.

You might want to consider David’s many prayers in trembling fear and pleas for God’s intervention and blessings – should he have been living differently and not addressing these matters and was he acting like he didn’t know Christ?

Excellent point. The Psalms are littered with psalms of crying out to God in times of need whether personally or as a people. Then there is Job and Lamentations.

Knowing God is not a promise of a cheerful leave it to beaver life like the one falsely promised by some televangelists. We go through trials and it is natural for us to call out to our Father in those trials.

This is one such time when the world is actually united with a common trial and finding that all the things we depend on for control (wealth, job, social relationships, governments, health care systems, technologies, political, military, physical strength) have shown to be the empty shells that they are. People are struggling to find hope, the hope that we have that is eternal, will not rust and is not of this world.

Recognizing the dire situation we are truly in with this virus is also a metaphor for recognizing the dire situation we are in sin and in need of salvation beyond our power.
