I received an email with that heading and basically it said i will lose my ssl after 14 days… I have letsencrypt with my host.
I have emailed them for help but they said this to me:

‘‘The Let’s Encrypt SSL is a free SSL that we offer and is automatically renewed every 3 months. However, the reason you are receiving these notifications is that the primary ‘A’ record for your domain does not resolve to our server. Your website is hosted externally so the SSL does not cover your website.’’

My site is on Cloudfare due to ezoic.

I am not sure what to do in Cloudfare to avoid this SSL issue
 
If you're using Cloudflare they should handle SSL for you. No need to involve your host, just use Cloudflare's Origin certificates, that is as long as you're not using 'Full (strict)' for Cloudflare's SSL options.

Currently it set to default which is "Full" not strict.

So I shouldn't need to do anything more now?

Yes you should be fine. If you ever turn off Cloudflare's proxying though, for debugging or anything, you'll probably get SSL errors.
