But the woman came and did Jesus homage, saying, “Lord, help me.” Matthew 15:25

The COVID and racism pandemics are feeding a number of demons. As the demons of distress, anxiety, and fear attempt to infiltrate my mind, body, and spirit, I do my best to stay aware of their effect on me and ask the Lord to help me. I trust he hears and answers me.

Today I put my faith in the Compassion of God.
