“God is at work. He does not slumber.
Christ intercedes. He does not fail.
The Spirit comforts. He does not forsake.
Be at rest. Be at peace.
Your name at the end of the day is Beloved” (Ann Voskamp).

I posted this quote on this day in 2015, not knowing how insanely relevant it would be in 2025. There’s still craziness in the world. There’s still so much anxiety-inducing headlines popping up all over my feed and emails.

But God is still at work. He still does not slumber. Christ still intercedes and has yet to fail. The Spirit still comforts and has not yet forsaken nor will He. We can be at rest and have peace because God’s name for you and for me is still Beloved.

I’m thankful that my hope isn’t in a party or a president or a platform. No matter which side prevails for the season, they will never truly heal the wounds or fix the underlying issues because there are no political answers to spiritual questions. Only Jesus returning can restore all that is broken and heal all that is broken beyond repair.

And should Jesus tarry, that will still be true in 2035.
