We are living through difficult times and with a lot of uncertainty, most of us are in a kind of quarantine in our homes, but what benefit can we get from this adverse situation? How can we grow as human beings?
It really is a time for reflection without a doubt.

When the fisherman cannot go out to sea he uses his time to repair the nets.
Nabil Sabio Azadi
We have been so busy and focused on our own plans and tasks that we have forgotten where we came from and quein is the giver of all things. Yes, my beloved brothers, the world has gone after its own desires and passions, values are no longer important and human knowledge has wanted to impose itself on the divine.
Jesus once said that I am the vine and you are the pampas, outside of me you can do nothing.
Now we are protected in our homes and the only thing we can do is repair our networks, which represents the heart of each individual, it is in that intimacy with the creator that we will meet again, it is time for the hearts of the children to return to the parents, and the heart of the parents to the children.
We have a life manual and everything is immersed in it, in the scriptures:
Ecclesiastes 3 King James Version (RVR1960)
Everything has its time
3 Everything has its time, and everything you want under heaven has its time.
2 Time to be born, and time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to destroy, and a time to build;
4 a time to cry, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 a time to scatter stones, and a time to gather stones; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to discard;
7 a time to break, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak;
8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9 What profit does the one who works have, from that in which he works?
10 I have seen the work that God has given to the children of men to occupy themselves in it.
Let us know how to discern times, crises arise when something must change and today God is speaking to his creation, we have to change, we have to make the best of ourselves, we have to repair those networks that are broken from so much use, from the old, Let's invite Jesus to each home and especially dwell in our hearts, let's forgive all those who have offended us as God forgives us, Satan may have asked to shake us but when we come back to confirm others, we must take that witness of life to the world, let us be men and women according to the heart of God.
My fervent prayer is that in this time of solitude for some, as a family for others we can let Jesus heal every wound, restore our lives and heal the anguished heart and when all this happens, we are ready to love, love again as when we were Children, with a pure and sincere heart, only in this way will we find purpose and redemption for our lives.
WITH LOTS OF LOVE!
It is really a time to checkmate our lives and try to balance up every aspect of it. It is also time to get to bond with our families cause in the end that's all we have.
As I’ve been forced to slow down, I can see more clearly several ways I keep myself distracted from pursuing relationship with my God. Its been a challenging yet very good opportunity to recalibrate some priorities and give Jesus more of my time devoted to Him instead of devoted to YouTube.
