Yeah, challenges people face are real
Who knew? I can’t remember where I read it. But I recently saw where somebody wrote that as a headline. Or subhead, or something like that. Anyway…they probably thought they were saying something profound. But, of course, challenges people face are real. At least…until they’re not.

Yeah, and some challenges people face are fake.
Or they’re blown up in a fake way to make them seem real. But they’re still fake. And you might wonder why anyone would make up a challenge where one didn’t exist before.
It’s because most people don’t have (and don’t want) an eternal connection to reality. In fact, they’re happy (so they think) living out their lives in quiet, or sometimes obnoxiously loud, desperation. But you were designed with a calculating and problem solving brain. You need to be challenged.
Because you need to rise to the challenges.
And even when you face an invisible foe, like this current virus problem, you shouldn’t make things up. Especially to use them as scare tactics to manipulate the masses.
You and I are gonna face viruses, bacteria, and all kinds of germs our entire lives. And we’ve already been dealing with them our entire lives. There’s no getting out of it, short of going to Heaven. But our bodies can do an excellent job of fighting them off. Because we’re designed with an immune system. Keep it strong, and your body will fight strong. But keep it compromised with poor eating and unhealthy lifestyle choices, and your time on earth might not be as long as you’d like.
So, you’re challenge, today, is…are you going to Heaven?
If yes, you can stop reading (or listening to) this and go about your day. If no, you’ve got a decision to make.
Keep going the way you’re going. And decide to live in fear and confusion (or rebellion) every time life throws curveballs. Or get yourself some serious salvation. The choice is yours. And so are the consequences.
Decide that you’ll deal with reality.
Do it with precise punctuality.
There’s a still, small voice pointing out the best choice,
Unless your mind is still too blind to see.
