Turn to Jesus
I created this website at
the beginning of the first Covid lockdown in the UK, believing
that the pandemic might lead people to turn from the downhill
path we have taken as a nation and look for God .
As the months and now years
have passed, our attitude seems to be that the virus and its
knock-on effects is just one of those things, something to be
tamed and conquered by our cleverness, and lived with as best we
can. Humanity can manage this: we don't need God to help us. Nor
do we need to change our ways. It is simply a case with getting
back to life as it was before, as quickly as possible.
Well, the Covid threat may
have receded but so far the storm it unleashed is intensifying to
my mind. Economics, politics, even war. I believe there is a holy
God who loves us and wants to have our attention. I think we do
well to use this setback and its aftermath to ponder on our life
here, and see them as a reason to search for him.
I have tried to address
questions you may have. The feedback contains over a hundred
reflections, links to relevant websites etc that I found during
the Covid years. Please weigh and consider these matters
carefully. Send in your own feedback. And may God bless you and
yours.
Thank you, David Pennant,
