It’s nice to be back here. It’s such a weird time, isn’t it? So sad about George Floyd’s death and the racial inequalities, and an uncertain and hard time for our hard working police officers too, as well as a strange polarizing season of life with the coronavirus and the pendulum of people’s responses. I agree!

We are walking that too in Minnesota.

How are you?

Oh my, you are definitely in a difficult situation, Sarah. I appreciate your prayer including mental health as well. We can’t even imagine yet the long-term implications this will have on mental health, even as we watch what it’s doing to our mental health in the short-term. I know my anxiety level has increased, and my situation is comparatively easy. Praying that you’ll be able to stay content until you are able to see your families and that it won’t be too much longer.

It is frustrating. And now we wait for the number of cases to go up again over the next two weeks since our Independence Day holiday here in the states. 🙁 Our hospitals are still able to handle the load in my area, but they are strained. I don’t know how it will be a month from now though. Hopefully people are waking up more to the seriousness of it and will do better about complying with the guidelines from here on out.

Thanks, Jean. I was preaching to myself, but glad if it helps others along the way too. Sounds like many of us have similar struggles that we are working through.
