Looking for Secrets From the Circuit Breaker?

 

Drawing lessons learnt from a personal quarantine a few years ago and presently as well as reflections from God’s Word, Ms Joanne Kwok traces out three “secrets” in this season of stay home circuit breaker for us to ponder.

I knew He was showing me something. Every time he brought His disciples somewhere to have their buttons pressed (think having to find food for thousands or sail through crazy storms) – He was showing them something.

This has always been how He’s tested, taught and trained His people for what is to come. I believe that’s exactly what He’s doing again, now. We need to shut up, sit up and press in.

Because, yes, we feel trapped in our houses. Incapacitated by the Circuit Breaker. We’re no longer in any real control, at the mercy of the invisible enemy. And deep down inside we’re scared that we’ve forever lost what we used to have.

But this condition will pass – and we need to remember how this feels like, what it’s revealing. We need to know it for whatever comes next.
