Happy New Year, Even Though The COVID 19 Will Follow Us To 2021

Happy New Year, Even Though The COVID 19 Will Follow Us To 2021

With faith, hope, and courage, we shall cross over to see the new year of 2021


Every New Year is always accompanied by many events, including sadness, tragedies, and happiness. The year 2020 has been a very terrible year as we begin with a terrific impact of COVID 19 from Wuhan, China. Unfortunately, the pandemic is still following us to the new year of 2021.


As we all know, apart from natural calamities due to geographical reasons, the majority of global suffering is caused by man. Politics, based on power, corrupts the mind of politicians to do whatever ever they wish, whether it's good or bad, mostly affecting innocent people.


The chase for money in society has also increased violence and crimes, taking its toll on people, leading to poor health, depression, and suicides. 


The devastation of the coronavirus has affected many businesses and the economies of many countries, causing many worldwide to lose their jobs. Many have lost their loved ones by COVID 19, and, therefore live in fear and anxiety. 


However, if you are living by now ready to cross to the new year, means that God loves you. Yes, the invincible supreme ruler, Jehovah, Yahweh, who is mightier than every rock and ammunition, loves you.


Despite the impact of the coronavirus, you’ve made it to this point, ready to crossover to the new year, therefore, what are your hopes, dreams, and aspirations? I strongly believe that your dreams can be a reality in the year 2021.

 

How prepared are you to improve the soured relationship with the members of your family? How prepared are you to change your bad habits to enjoy your professional career? How prepared are you to be humble and respectful, to get the right gentleman or lady as your partner?

 

How prepared are you to make this world a better place for our present and future generation, in a world many think violence, crime, and terrorism, are the only solutions for common problems? We can’t remake the world, but our good deeds can change it.

 

There is every reason to be happy among those that made it this far. Your success, happiness, destiny, and good health, are in your own hands. Don’t commit any crime when you know that you will be punished and also affect others.


Don’t live in the realms of destructive drugs when you know it may affect your health. Instead of blaming others for the destruction of the world, we should take it upon ourselves to restore our nation’s dignity. 


The problem is that most people find it hard to overcome their fears because it’s part of who they are. That’s actually a mistake. “No one drinks medicine on the behalf of a sick person,” a Ghanaian proverb, meaning your happiness is in your own hands.

 

At times, sadness, loneliness, and depression make us feel miserable and scared because we don’t know what tomorrow may bring but if you are not dead, then there is always hope there for you. Take your time to look for it.


If the blind can play the piano, someone without hands, can open the chapters of a book, with his toes or tongue to read, birds can survive both the winter and summer, then why do you have to grumble when you are very close to see the new year?


There are many opportunities there for you. Let God be your guide to choose wisely and let your hopes and dreams be a reality in the year 2021.


Finally, brothers, rejoice, aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.” 2 Corinthians
