“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
-- Matthew 24:12
When we can’t, won’t or shouldn’t speak to one another while out in public, especially if we’re not wearing a mask, what would you call that if not cold?
If you try to speak a kind word to someone in public nowadays, they give you a weird look and quickly turn and walk away. #cold
Also, if this current tone in society is setting some sort of new norm for how people treat one another -- I mean, the “friendly neighbor” thing already faded back in the sixties -- but this...this could quite possibly make us more inclined to be defensive and hostile to one another on a general basis. #colder
If from now on we adopt this perception of everyone is a threat -- and if they speak to you within a twelve foot radius they could kill you, that sounds pretty biblical to me. #coldest
Take a look for yourself...

If this global crisis sets the tone, creating this thought in the back of our minds that never really goes away, like everyone you see and interact with and even everyone you know could possibly make you sick or make you die, and masks and social distancing are integrated into everyday life (the way the internet was) six months, a year, longer...that’s entirely a big sign of the times that we need to pay attention to. BEING WOKE IS A FULL TIME JOB.
Love you guys 🤟 Be well and Be blessed.
