Reading in Times of Trouble

More and more, it looks like we'll all have a bit of spare time on our hands. Rather than spend it binge watching "Mean Girls", pick up a book and read. First and foremost, for all of us, not just those of you facing your own mortality for the first time, is to be right with the Lord. If you don't have a Bible, you can download it for free as an app (or course!).  I like YouVersion, which just comes up as "Bible" on the App Store.  Right now it has five start with 4.8 million votes.  You can easily search, select from different translations, and even choose preset reading and study plans.

The hardest times are ahead of us - health, political, social, and for some mental.  Calls to suicide hotlines have grown exponentially by all accounts. Our years of handing out participation trophies has gained us hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of citizens who cannot handle negative news or hard times. I recently listened to a podcast where an expert talked about how difficult times literally build mental strength.  Each time we go through difficult or stressful events, chemicals are released in our brain to deal with it; the more incidents, the more our brain becomes hardwired to deal with difficulty. It goes a long way towards explaining why people from poor, agrarian backgrounds so often become some of our best soldiers, sailors, and Marines.  The horror of war is something easier for them to roll with, giving them vital mental and emotional resources to deal with the issues at hand instead of spending them on accepting the difficult environment they fi...
