What Does Jesus Say About Masks And Vaccines?

“As I have loved you, so you must love one another.”-Jesus in John 13:34.

This is what Jesus teaches us.  Not always easy, but always the right thing to do. Because Jesus calls us to love everyone, whether we agree with them or not.

There are many in our country’s leadership who would divide us.  For those who have been vaccinated and wear masks, it’s easy to become angry with those who do not.  For those who are unvaccinated, it’s easy to become angry at the pressure being exerted on them to do both. Rightly or wrongly, we are all definitely paying a price. So what is even worse, is our anger feels justified!

But Jesus’ command to “love thy neighbor as yourself” has not changed.  So no matter how difficult our circumstances, that is what we must do. And if we are struggling with that, God WILL help us-if we ask.

Lastly, “feelings” just are…And sometimes they can take a bit of time to catch up with our choices. So sometimes we can “feel” angry and still choose to “act” with love. And that is okay! We are choosing God’s Will over our own. And if we keep choosing love, eventually, with God’s Help, our “feelings” will catch up 🙂
