We serve the God of this universe who holds life itself in His hands.
He is in this with you.
He is beside you.
He is rooting for you and He is fighting for you.
I wish we would think of masks like a spiritual discipline: I am wearing a mask as a way to physically love my neighbor in a specific way, but also as a small act that, by the power of the Holy Spirit, might form me into someone who sacrifices much more for the sake of others.
I hear people say, "I don't have to go to church to be a Christian," and they are absolutely right. Salvation is through faith alone in Christ alone. But you don't have to go home to be married, but stay away long enough & your relationship will be affected.

Before retakes were a thing, some spots would be left blank, saying “picture unavailable”. Yearbook was their explanation of why they might have missed.
