Catch up on your reading, call or text your friends and loved oned to see if they are OK and share the little you have with those in need.

Above all, have faith and believe that the God of the day is still God in the night and this too shall pass.

Those who aren't, should join the rest of the nation on Wednesday 25th to cry out to the lord to sustain us in these trying times.
