The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic created havoc in many cities and countries around the world, but for each of us it was personal and affected us mentally, spiritually and emotionally in addition to the ravages on our bodies and economies. This short book was inspired by Genesis 41 and the lessons learned from the desolation envisioned in the dream of the fat and skinny cows. The nations and peoples in that story survived because they heeded the warning and prepared during the time of abundance. I carry these lessons into our modern day experience and provide a spiritual guide to surviving and thriving in a time of great distress. This power-packed book is applicable to all, as we navigate life's challenges and is based on biblical principles that have been proven in the past and works today.
