TheTime COINCamille AndingThe Lord continues to add branchesto our family tree, and I’m so grateful.Baby Shepherd Anding Dobbs arrived on April 30,2020 – all 6 pounds, 3 ounces of his tiny frame. Heseemed very relieved to extend his arms and legs fromhis cramped, fetal position.Someday when he’s older, family will tell him aboutthe strange state of the world he was birthed into. Iwould have chosen a more normal time when familycould have kept sentinel in the waiting room and gottenfirst glimpses through the nursery windows. Instead,we jumped at every phone ping to view pictures anddiscuss family resemblances. The sinister COVID-19even cut short his hospital stay from three days to two.Under normal times, we would have been groupedaround his driveway, waiting to welcome him and taketurns holding him. Shepherd’s doctor nixed all of thoseideas and insisted he didn’t have any visitors for severaldays. Our phones were our only means of viewing ournew addition, but God is good in all circumstances indealing with His children.Someday I hope to share with Shepherdhow God can turn bad times into goodtimes. I will explain that love is alwaysstronger than anything the enemy cansend against us, including threateninghearts for Shepherd, didn’t decline or diminish justbecause we couldn’t touch him physically. Love hadalready securely planted him in our hearts and minds.We could deal with the temporary separation, too,because we knew it was temporary. It just amplifiedour anticipation of seeing him face to face.Families are irreplaceable, but there are times whena herd of inquisitive relatives can add some anxietyand discomfort to delicate situations. Newborns aredefinitely swamped in delicate moments and experiencesas well as their rookie parents. The quarantinetook care of those concerns which allowed thethreesome bonding time they will never forget.This entire Corona deal has given us loads of detailsthat Shepherd will find hard to believe when he’s oldenough to understand. That’s assuming and trustingthat the days of masks and social distancing are thingsof the past by then.However, we will always be able to rejoice inknowing God is sovereign over all, and there is neverseparation and social distancing with Him. Wealso will assure Shepherd that he arrived in God’sperfect timing, bringing us just the kind of joywe needed in strange and difficult times. ●viruses. Our love, already growing in our58 • JULY 2020
