As a former teacher and school district employee I am familiar with the terminology "shelter in place." We used it with schools and students when it was necessary to lock down the school in response to some type of threat, i.e. weather, police activity in the neighborhood, etc.
As an individual, I now have personal experience with the terminology "shelter in place" because that's the latest requirement here in Santa Clara County. For those over 65, the recommendation came out last week. Today our county is part of a larger group of counties/cities in the Bay Area that are requiring this for everyone, not just seniors, as they try to slow down the spread of COVID19. Here's the order if you want to read all the details.
Yesterday, I "went" online to watch services at two different churches. At 8:30 Stephen and joined our home church, Peninsula Bible Church, in their very first live streaming service. Pastor Brian departed from his series on Jacob and taught Psalm 23. At 10:00, I joined Iglesia Bautista Vida Nueva's Facebook Live service. Pastor Steve and Pastor Julio taught from Psalm 91.
In the midst of all of this confusion, information, misinformation, fear, we are looking for peace.
Here is where we find it! Ask God and He will give you peace in the midst of trouble.
