In Italy the situation is really unbearable. Without a vaccination passport you can no longer work. As I have already written to you since the first of September I am at home without work. It's sad but it's happening right under our eyes. I have been a believer for twenty years and I can assure you that it is a very hard test. I am also thinking of expatriation but I don't even know where to go. They took our jobs away! Pray again for my wife and me. Let's pray together for Italy. Remember that what is happening now here could happen anywhere because Italy has been chosen as the world leader for the organization of vaccinations. Thanks again. I love you in Jesus Christ.

@faith20 What's going on in the world is terrible! People lose their jobs around the world! As you say, it's a very hard test! Let's encourage one another, to cling to our faith in Jesus Christ. I pray the Lord will bless you and keep you, and sustain you! Have you lived in Italy all of your life?

I haven't walked in your shoes, since I still have my teacher job. I can just imaging how it must be feeling. Even if I don't know how you feel, I want to share these verses that came to my mind: Luke 12: "Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin,[a] yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass, which is alive in the field today, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith! And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor be worried. For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need them."

@tanjaostman Thanks sister for your encouragement. I have always lived in Italy. In the nineties I spent a few months in St. Petersburg and in Berlin as a student. I studied piano and conducting. God bless you.

@faith20 Ok! I understand it's not easy just to move to another country. I don't know if you have children or adult children... It's always more difficult to move with children, even if it's possible. And the fact is, that we never know what will happen in the future in the more liberal countries when it comes to covid passports. Praying for God's leading for you!

@tanjaostman It is true. Everything is changing fast and it is not easy to move into this historical period. I think this is the moment that as a church, as bodies of Christ, we support each other in prayer because we often feel alone, especially if we decide not to get vaccinated. Thanks again.
