A Strange Dream

I had a dream last night.
I was in a youth camp. But I wondered. We are in a youth camp. And yet, we are doing nothing.
All of a sudden, I heard a loud music. But it was just like a karaoke. A music without anyone singing.
I don't know where did I put the courage. But I started singing passionately, although I was terribly out of tune. And some people around me started to look at me with wonder. It's like they are tellng me, "what are you doing?"
But I continued to sing anyway. Moments later, my friends started to sing with me. And before I knew it, the place became like a party. A bunch of young people singing worship songs with all of our hearts.
As I reflect on it, I realize that the fact that we are in a youth camp but are not doing anything signifies the community quarantine that we are having in our place right now. But perhaps God is also telling me through that dream that the pandemic (because of the coronavirus) that we are experiencing right now should not be a hindrance for us to experience and share the love of God.
Let's continue to pray that this pandemic will soon be over.

What a beautiful dream, let's fill our social media feeds with an inspiring verse from the bible, worship song and anything that glorifies our Creator. Its the best time to bend our knees and pray. Stay safe!

Yes Brigitte. I think t is so beautiful too. At a time like this, we need God. We have been so busy with our lives. But perhaps this crisis will give us more time to reflect on our lives and be closer to God.
Stay safe too.

I also hope that too. That's all we can do right now. Hope and pray that this thing will be over soon.
