Uncertainty
I don't know what the day holds from hereon as the fallout begins to reach its zenith. There is a palpable fear, chaos intermingled with both hope and despair. It is a rational response to a sweeping mandate that many do not accede to but must accept. In an era when clashing beliefs and polarized views both co-exist, it is inevitable that there is a faction of loss and another that triumphs. The win-lose trifecta with purging is a volatile potion that breeds more unrest and discontent. The hope for peace becomes an unwinnable aspiration.
And yet, I read in the Scripture of a peaceful slumber that the tossing waves could not waken if not from cries of disciples manning a sinking ship in the midst of a terrible storm. I pray for this peace now because I am in this raging storm in life where my very bread is being taken away. Is this the end of the life I have known?
Please God help me to find peace.
