Covid-19 and past and future

A little thinking about situation with COVID-19.
Recently my 3,5 year old son and I were reading a story about Noah's ark. I was surprised that Noah, his family and animals were on the boat for a year.
  
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s
life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights. Genesis 7
13 By the first day of the first month of Noah’s six hundred and first year, the water had dried up from the earth. Noah then removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry. 14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was completely dry. Genesis 8

Think about this: they all were on the boat, the rain was happening for 40 days and nights. 
Also they were on the boat constantly for a year. Wow!
We are quarantined for 3-4 weeks and people are already complaining. Think about Noah and his family of 8.  How was it for them?
And I want to tell you even more. I was reading from the book of Revelation. And it talks about the period of Tribulation. 
The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it was hurled down on the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned into blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water 11 the name of the star is Wormwood.[a] A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.
12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them turned dark. A third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night.

13 As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying in midair call out in a loud voice: “Woe! Woe! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the other three angels!” Revelation 8:7-13. 
You also can read about other three angels and what happened after they will sound their trumpets and what will happen with people living on earth in Rev. 9. 

I was thinking that we are on quarantine less than a month and we are already complaining.  We think that it is torture for us all and punishment. But whatever the Bible is describing in Revelation will be much worth and people even did not repent as we can see it in Rev. 9:20-21
20 The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk. 21 Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.

Dear people who are reading this. Be sober and repent because God is not joking. He wants us to repent and come to know Jesus. He has salvation, forgiveness of wins, He holds eternity. Please, think about it and do your act upon it.
10 then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. 11 Jesus is
“‘the stone you builders rejected,
    which has become the cornerstone.’[a]
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:10-12
