HH#2 — Now & Then

We are going to call these letter board posts, “Hallway Highlights”, HH in the titles for short. So here’s #2!

Now

We are all facing uncertain times and unprecedented disruptions. Two weeks into this new normal, I think we’ve begun to level out. Balancing our two at-home work schedules with our two full-time toddlers has been a busy blur, especially all on our own. But therein lies the point of this post, we’ve never been alone. God has entered deeply into our home life and parenting these past two weeks. Although draining, He has been sustaining. We’ve had to lean harder into His grace more than ever before. Every morning, we desperately choose to graciously remind ourselves, Jesus is here with us.

“I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” — Matthew 28:20 ESV

Then

Recently, Holy Spirit lead me to the beautiful image of Jesus’ return:

“Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True.” — Revelation‬ ‭19:11‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I’m comforted now and confident for then as I know the Jesus who extends grace to us in the moments of today will explode into glory on that unforeseen tomorrow. That same wind-riding warrior King now joins the laughter of daddy back rides amongst fallen Cheerios on our kitchen floor. He is here. He is and will always be faithful and true.
