Sharing this today. It’s a very few select passages from Nancy Campbell of Above Rubies exposing her complete and utter lack of any knowledge about how viruses work, when you are or aren’t at risk and other silly ideas.
I know many people, not only around where I live, but across the nation and the world, and I personally don’t know of one person who has this virus. Of course I know there are many who do (and statistics now reveal that anyone who needs to be hospitalized or may even die, are those whose immune systems are compromised or they have existing medical problems), but I personally don’t know of one yet.
Way to stick your head in the sand and pretend. I am sure she knows at least a few people with it. If not normal folks, I’m sure she’s heard of at least of the celebrities that have it.
The other day I posted on my personal Facebook the fact that there is not one case of the corona virus in our country in Tennessee! Not one. Nor has our closest hospital had one hospitalization, and that’s a different county! What totally surprised me is that not one person acknowledged this good news with a positive comment. No one said: “Praise the Lord that you have none in your country. That’s wonderful.” Or “God is good. That’s great news.” Instead, even though this was good news, most of the comments were full of fear and doom and gloom.
That would be because a) most people realize it’s not any special favor from God that your county is Covid-less, but more predicated on the fact that you’re clearly in a rural area that has not have the virus sweep through and b) most people are at least a little scared of contracting this thing. This is not lacking faith in God!
I don’t think it was only coincidence. I believe that fear is a powerful thing. Yesterday the president informed us that one out of every 10 people who are tested for the corona virus is positive. That’s nine out of ten people who are fine but are obviously fearful and therefore being tested. That unnecessary testing can waste time and money when there are so many more urgent cas
Nancy does not understand that to even be tested in the U.S.A. you must have pretty clear symptoms, be in an area that has tests, have decent private insurance. Any news source you pull up has horror stories about people who need the test and are not being tested. I lay this right at the actions of our incompetent president.
We are all facing a world-wide dilemma as we face this corona virus. We read or watch on TV all the different projections of how many are going to die and how long it is going to continue. Dearest ladies, these are only projections. They are what MIGHT happen. They are not fact! And yet we say, “Yes, Sir,” and give into fear.
I know you are praying, but what could happen if we REALLY took time out to intercede and take authority over this virus in the realms of prayer? Prayer is powerful. But not little prayer. It is MUCH prayer (Revelation 8:3). It is the “effectual fervent prayer” of the righteous (James 5:16).
Nancy believes you just need hand washing and a little prayer.
