[quote=Anonymous]Me too.  I was dwelling on the fact that we were to move and now it is on hold.  What will happen? What will our finances be?  Will we have food?  Can I care for those I care about?  Then a young friend offered me hope. 
She says “if you are scared, you need Jesus.” Simple answer to a complex thought. So I pondered. Then another friend offered me the scripture from the Bibe, Ephesians 4:4-8. This says “Rejoice.”   I thought, sure rejoice?  So I asked for help to rejoice and behold it helped. I was able to begin to see hope. See blessings.  This scripture also says “Dwell on these ‘good’ things.”  So I begin to discipline my thoughts and began to dwell on good things. I am feeling better about things now.  I then realized- ok -friends helped me by sharing their insight.  So maybe I could help others, my children/family by sharing my insights. This also helped me to focus on “good” things. We can encourage others and be a light for our children. 
Our children are learning from us how to handle this type of challenge as it comes into our lives. We can be an example and teach them how to cope. I am praying for you and incidentally for homeschooling your kids  and coping I found this resource (https://bit.ly/3bkgV9L). Hope all of this helps. Blessings to you.[/quote]
