Bang, you're so scared.

You're scared. Afraid of the Corona virus. Afraid of getting sick. Afraid of the consequences. Afraid of ending up in the hospital. You're afraid of the hospital itself. Afraid of being put to sleep in an oxygen mask. Afraid of the words, we don't know if you'll wake up. Afraid you can not say goodbye to your loved ones. Afraid it will be agony and afraid of death.

Your wife is in contact with someone through Whatsapp. You don't want to see that person anymore, but your wife does. That person says your wife can come by and sit outside when the weather is nice. They can easily keep their distance in the garden.

Your fear is coming up again. You don't like it. So afraid of the consequences. What if she has corona? What if she infected your wife and your wife gets corona? Suppose your wife, in turn, infects you. Fear.

I've changed

I write this with pain in my heart. Eating will be a little tricky. There's a little lump in my throat in the way. I love you. Our relationship wasn't easy, but it doesn't detract from my love for you. Yes, I hated you, deeply hated you, but that hatred disappeared when Christ appeared to me.

The moment I accepted Jesus — not primarily because I was looking for Truth, but because Truth came to me — my life changed 180 degrees. I learned about forgiveness, and God began to work in my life. He changed me, step by step, and that process is still going on. That did something to my attitude towards you, too. You haven't had it easy in your life. I know, and I understand.

I understand you more and more

You used to hide your pain and fear behind the search for tough activities. Motorcycling, deep-sea diving, etc., etc., you were a tough man; in that sense, not afraid. But you hid who you really were. You couldn't get to those emotions. Your heart was petrified, although you were told to listen carefully.
