Masks: God is watching; love is the answer

Why don’t people want to wear a mask?

Because they hate people who care enough to want to try to keep them healthy by asking them to wear a mask? Because they are suicidal and hope they will get sick?

Because they want others to risk their lives trying to keep them from dying when they get sick? Because they are mad because they didn’t think of wearing a mask before others mentioned it?

Wearing a mask to try to keep one’s self and others virus free is the sign of an emotionally mature, responsible person.

Remember, God is watching all of our actions and behavior. Love is always the answer. It is not too late to wear a mask.
