“Honest? Sometimes we just want to find the rewind button — find our way back to where we’ve been so we can live better, love realer, feel safer.

And You whisper, “Look ahead with joy… everything’s going to work out. I promise it’s all working out for good…Look to Me” Isa:65:17, Ps20:6, Ro.8:28, Matt10:38MSG

And You are up ahead!

“There are far better things ahead — than any we leave behind.”

The best is never behind us; You save the *best* for up ahead — more of You!

and the end will be the *best*… and it will only be the *beginning*.

Believe it — and rest well tonight.

#PrayingEachOtherThrough” (Ann Voskamp).

Sometimes, you’re just tired of being tired. You can’t get away from all the bad news coming at you from all sides and wonder when it’s ever going to finally end.

Then you read the last chapter of the last book of the Bible and remember that one day it will end. One day, God will wipe away every tear from our eyes. One day, we will see the new city coming out of heaven. One day, we will see the new heaven and the new earth, and it will be the way God made it in the beginning with only joy and no sin. And the best part is that Jesus will be there.

One day soon.
