The faith over fear mask is comical. A faithful person is not afraid and, therefore, does not wear a mask. There are a lot of things frightened people do in public to show their fear. Wearing a mask is one of them. Of course, sometimes it just means they are really, REALLY gullible.
I laughed at the occasional person (always asian) I saw in public wearing a mask. Maybe one or two a year. But now, whenever I go out, it’s everywhere.
As I told my facebook friends a couple of weeks ago, if we are ever required to wear masks in my state, well, I’ll probably do some jail time. And yeah. I’m old...
I, too, can understand your reaction because that was my first thought. But if I want to, by faith, obey God and His word, I am to submit to the governing authorities. I would wear the mask if ordered to, I would wear it with a smile on my face and song in my heart. It may be that I am asymptionmatic and this will help prevent me from giving the virus to another.
“My sheep hear My voice, I know them and they follow Me.” I want to try and appreciate the decisions of individuals and also keep a clear conscience before God and man.
Praise God we live in America.
