When I think about life, I think about what I was created for.  In these times, the corona times, it really hits me.  As someone who wants to serve God, I ask how can I?  What is my purpose during all this?  What is it that I am to do in this moment?

Esther has always been a book I could turn to.  She questions why she is there and her father says, "perhaps this is the moment you were created for."  What a powerful statement!  I can hear God saying that to me too!  It has become a motto for me in my life.  So much so that any time I feel down and out, I say it.  When I am happy, I say it.  When I am anxious about something like speaking in public, I say it.

We are all on this Earth for one reason or another.  We may not always know what for, but I can say this, we are made for this moment in time.

With the pandemic, you may say, what can I do during it?  What is the purpose of my life during it?  It could be as simple as being there for others over zoom, facetime, or phone.  It may be going out as an essential to work.  It may be just growing closer to God.  I know this, it is what we make of it.

May you remember that you were created and this can be your moment to shine!
