Under the Mask

“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me” John 10:14 (NIV).
           
These days of Covid-19 Pandemic most everyone is wearing a mask. When I do I almost feel like I have lost my identity, and that others have too.  It feels as if I am in a state of hiding—like people I see in public may not know who I am, even though they may have been my friend for years.  Although I know that I am still the same person, somehow the feeling I get under the mask is different than what I am accustomed to—like being concealed.
         
We know that through Jesus our identity is never lost; He knows us intimately. The Bible says in Jeremiah 1:5, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I set you apart.”

Thank You, Lord, that even under our masks You know all of us intimately.

     I love to walk with and write about our great God and my Savior, Jesus Christ.  Now in my senior years, I can say, looking back at the joys, difficulties, and challenges of life, "I know that my Redeemer lives," (Job 19:25 NIV). I am a retired teacher and author of many published articles, and contributor to two books--God Still Meets Needs (Littleton)and Grandparenting Through Obstacles: Overcoming Family Challenges to Reach Your Grandchildren for Christ (Wilburn,Butts). I am also author of In God's Creation: Devotions for the Outdoors and In God's Creation: Devotions for the Beach.  Both books are available on Amazon and www.booknofurther.com.
