Hello from Polk City, Florida on our 40th 💍 Anniversary, March 15, 2020! This is not exactly where we planned (🚢 ) to be today but we’re rolling with the punches ✊🏻 which in reality, is par for the course. Life is full of ups and downs, fun and disappointment, love and heartbreak, surprises that bring joy and surprises that bring tears, good times and a few of the not-so-good times. But, in love ❤️ and together with God, we’ve found in Him a cord of three strands is not easily broken.

So we’re hunkering down here for the next few weeks and want to encourage everyone else to do the same. Social distancing is the responsible thing to do right now to help “flatten the curve” and it’s also a good time to be still and think about things. Take a nighttime walk and gaze at the stars. ⭐️ Read that book 📚 that you’ve been wanting to read. Write 🖊 that letter that’s been on your mind. Make that long overdue phone 📱 call. Think 🤔 about and be thankful 🙌🏻 for the many blessings in your life. Clean 🧽 out your closets both literally and figuratively. Sing 🎤 like no one is listening and dance 💃 like no one is watching; the bright side of social distancing! 😊

May God help those who are sick, place a hedge of protection around the most vulnerable, bring calm to those who are anxious, protect the doctors, nurses and medical staff, bring comfort to those who mourn, and guide the researchers to create a vaccine for the COVID-19 as soon as possible. 🙏🏻

“And though one may be overpowered, two can resist. Moreover, a cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:12
