Dear Family & Friends,
Thank you so much for your prayers, messages, & support during the last couple months – I am humbled, moved, & encouraged, & I know your prayers were/are having an impact!
Please know I’m doing well. I’m in South Africa – in Lockdown. I’m receiving treatment. I declare, along with heaven, I am healing/healed, etc. by any means & timing! And I’m doing my part towards health & healing.
I want to let you know how COVID-19 is affecting me here in South Africa – Currently, we are in day 4 of a 21 day, mandatory, countrywide lockdown. We aren’t even allowed to take a run outside. So as I live in an apartment, my sunroom has become my favorite spot. I took my first trip to get groceries today – the streets were a ghost town. Thankfully, the stores weren’t busy, & I got everything I needed.
I will be posting another video to catch y’all up on my diagnosis to treatment journey very soon.
My heart goes out to how you, your families, communities, & nations are affected & how things may not feel so safe & secure. I AM PRAYING for you, for those battling this virus & illnesses, for the healthcare workers, & the people supporting those of us who have been told to stay home.
My love & prayers go with you,
Shannon
Proverbs 3:21-26 says,
“My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion; they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble. When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the Lord will be at your side and will keep your foot from being snared.”
South Africa Lockdown vibes: Apartment dwellers are using their balconies like they’ve never used them before. DAY 1 looks the same as day 2 and 3… Wish I had a yard/garden, but my sunroom gets lots of use. From here, working, praying, reading, processing, eating, hanging laundry, exercising, gazing, etc. I don’t need much space, but perspective is helpful. Gaze Above. Meditate on Colossians 3:1-4, a favorite Scripture of mine: “Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.”
