I was shocked when the NBA announced they were “suspending” the season. No games. As of this writing, two players have been diagnosed with COVID-19. I was so caught up in the news I forgot that one of my sons was taking me to a Denver Nuggets game April 3. Oops.
I received a text from him: “Looks like we picked the wrong time to try to see a ball game.” Then he wrote:
I did have to look it up, but it’s a good reminder of James 4.15. Definitely my philosophy.
I had a good idea what it said, but I looked it up anyway. An excellent philosophy and a good lesson for these times:
Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.” (James 4.15, ESV)
From my readings this morning: “Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ.”
PHILIPPIANS 1:27 NIV
I’m sure there are so many relevant, comforting Bible verses we can take to heart even more so during this time.
