For my family's part, we are blessed to all live together under one roof, including my 2 grandkids; so we'll be together for Easter. What we won't be doing is hosting the half-dozen or so unattached friends we usually invite over for most traditional holiday meals. I really feel for grandparents and grandchildren who won’t be able to be together this Easter, and for single people who won’t be able to fellowship with friends.03Lightningrocks wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 11:15 pm I am trying to make up my mind about going to my Daughter and SIL's house for Easter. My grand daughter is 5 and it has become a tradition to go over there and spend Easter with them. My grand daughter always does an Easter egg hunt and we eat dinner. I am not so much worried about getting anything as I am giving it to her. I was face timing with her Thursday and she said, "Papa, I sure miss you. When are you coming over again?". It about broke my heart. They only live 5 minutes away and I normally see her at least once or twice a week. I have been staying away now for almost a month. My daughter already told her I am coming over on Easter. Grrrr... I just don't know what to do.
I was kind of wondering if others on the forum were facing similar situations and what they are doing.
I have personally taken great comfort in my "Jesus Calling" daily devotional book. The other thing I’m doing is journaling this thing. I keep a journal anyway (although I sometimes miss doing a daily entry), and in addition to scripture that I record, or specific prayers and/or daily thoughts, beginning on 3/19 I also started recording my day to day experience of the pandemic.
It might make some interesting reading down the road a piece.
