Tuesday
Today was the day…
We fulfilled our commitment and completed the follow up for our 6 month J&J/Janssen vaccine trial. We were hoping for the J&J Booster shot but we haven’t quite passed the 6 month mark so that will only be due after 8th December.
We are so grateful to be able to have had access to a Covid vaccine. It startles me to think that there were so many healthy people that started 2021 with great expectations for a great year and have not seen the end of it – Gavin Williams and Amy Keller come to mind. I have no problem with taking the vaccine. There is no conflict in my mind, in my heart or in my spirit and I’m so grateful for that as well. For me, it is straight out, the sensible thing to do. God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and love and a sound mind.
I can’t figure out why the Vaccine has become such a divisive issue when it is saving lives. We don’t hesitate in taking other (quite often experimental) medication to combat disease. I’m not wanting an illness that causes great suffering and can be easily passed onto others while there is a drug that will mitigate against it. A prudent person sees danger and takes precautions.
I’m with Living Hope on this!
Courage wasn’t in again today, but is on the mend. He says he should be back at work tomorrow. His job is super physical so he needs to be well. Besides we don’t want whatever he had!
This afternoon, I got a goodly amount of work done. The wind has still been blowing so there has been no swimming. I did enjoy sitting in my rocking chair watching the wind whip the waves.
Psalm 119:114
You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word.
The best is yet to come – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
