Letter to Jesus

By: Filip (7YEARS)

Dear Jesus,

I am writing to you, to say what is happening in your world, why people are dying and ill, but you probably already know. This virus called coronavirus scared us so much and I hope and pray you will help us. We need to protect ourselves by staying indoor. Some people are sad, we are all sad, but sometimes we can do things that cheers us up. We can’t go to school, but we can sleep more instead. We can’t run in the park but I can play more with my brother. I can’t see my friends but I can spend more time with my family. We are playing games together, do home chores and even do cooking with mum. In the meantime the Planet is resting, on the streets you can’t see so many cars as before, the factories are shut down and can’t pollute anymore, we have more than a month staying indoors and the sun is bright on the clear sky each day! This makes me real happy! I think the planet is happier! I hope and pray this will stay the same when we can go outside! I hope and pray people protect the planet more than before. Please Jesus, help the sick people, don t let them die and protect my family, my friends and my teachers! Thank you Jesus so much,

Sincerely Your friend Filip
