A video clip of a 6-year-old girl teaching a Bible verse, 2 Timothy 1:7, from memory to her 7-year-old brother to calm his fears over the novel coronavirus pandemic is going viral on social media.
“My son Brandon has crippling fear cause of his #autism. His sister taught him a scripture she learned at @FellowshipMiss2 Church to help,” tweeted Sheletta Brundidge, a mother-of-four and children’s author, with the video. “Stop letting your fear of #Coronavirus be bigger than your faith in God. Plead The Blood, pray and wash your hands. Amen!”
The video clip was also broadcast by Fox News and ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

“Just yesterday my 24-year-old son who also has Autism and has had to live with severe anxiety, was reading the Bible to me,” a Twitter user responded to Brundidge’s tweet. “He also has a twin sister who was always looking out for him while growing up. Thanks for sharing your story. God Bless!”
According to the World Health Organization, there are 234,073 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus in 176 countries and 9,840 people have died.
In the United States, there are 10,442 cases with 150 deaths, as of early Saturday.
The verse 2 Timothy 1:7, which reads, “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control,” is frequently being cited by pastors and Christian ministers to help believers respond to the COVID-19 scare.
