Wednesday, August 26th

Things that I NOW think about with the coronavirus. (8/26)

Yesterday, Illinois increase the use of masks to include requiring people to wear masks inside.  I think before, individual businesses had the choice of the mask requirement.  This seems to be yet another sign that the spread of the virus is not decreasing, and I thought that this was the time of the year that we had hoped to get the spread under control.  I wish there was a way to extend August/September weather another few months, but maybe that wouldn't make a difference anyway.

Prayer for My Heart
Holy Spirit...
Help me have... 
    a pure heart, that I may see;
    a humble heart, that I may hear;
    a heart of love, that I may serve;
    a heart of faith, that I may abide in the spirit. 
                                                                     Amen
