[Steve Myers] We know the Bible says that all things work together for good to those who love God. That's in Romans 8:28. So even during these difficult times of quarantine, of isolation, it doesn't have to be a time that just goes to waste. We could think of it as a sort of sabbatical. A sabbatical is a time that we have to rest, to be rejuvenated, a time to be nourished, especially spiritually. We can draw closer to God. We have more time to pray, we have more time to study His word, and so we can do just that. Let's make this time a sabbatical.

It kind of refers to that a little bit in Psalm 16:8-9. It says this: "I have set the Lord always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Therefore, my heart is glad and my glory rejoices. My flesh will also rest in hope."

You see, we have a great hope before us. So even though we may be socially distant, even though we may be in isolation, in quarantine, we can use this time as a sabbatical, to be nourished in the faith, to grow and be renewed spiritually. So let's set our heart and mind in that direction and draw even closer to God during this time of sabbatical.

That's BT Daily. We'll see you next time.
