When You Are Just Scared That Things Will Be Totally Different After The Pandemic
Change will always be there, but this pandemic that we are currently experiencing is totally different. It changed our lives in a short period of time. We are left with no choice but to cope up. We can no longer do the things that we used to do with our friends and loved ones. Going outside takes a lot of risks, and right now, it’s a matter of life and death. People are currently experiencing so much fear, especially those who are simply afraid of changes. And not only that, the pandemic made us realize that the future is totally unknown. We never really know what will happen next. And because of what we experienced, things will be different after we go through this challenging season.
The people around us will change. Yes, we still communicate with our loved ones and friends through video calls and chat, but this time around, we can no longer stay with them physically. We need to adjust, and sometimes we are left with no choice but to grow apart. You may feel sad every time you remember your happy memories with them, but you need to strengthen yourself. This will pass. I don’t exactly know when, but better days are coming. And it doesn’t mean you need to wait for things to turn normal and just do nothing. You need to move forward because things might be totally different after this.
I know that it’s not easy but choose to have faith. It’s time for you to focus on your relationship with God. Receive His love and be secured in His arms. Give Him the chance to perform miracles in your life. Allow Him to move and let Him mess up your plans. God will direct you, and He will never abandon you in this season. The uncertainties might be scary, but trust that God will continue to stay faithful in your life. God is just giving you the perfect opportunity to trust Him, and now is the time for you to surrender everything.
God will be with you along the journey. He will hold your hands. Things may no longer be the same, but God will never change. He is your constant in this world full of uncertainties. You can trust in His love. Believe in His great plans for you. Pray that God will change your heart. May you learn to focus on His goodness rather than the negative things that you experienced. Above all, may your faith in Him grow and bear fruits that will last forever.
