"One thing you should know about me is that I desire to look for joy and satisfaction and peace in Jesus. 

He has changed my life. 

However, this is not always apparent and these uncertain times have put the spotlight on where and when I am not seeking him. My prayer has been that these times would be heart-changing. I want this time to leave a mark on my life and my heart. I want it to significantly change my family's lives and my life in whatever way glorifies God. 

I believe that these moments at home, where we have been told to be, is exactly where God wants us. He calls us to love sacrificially, with genuine joy, patiently and to love with encouragement. This is hard, at least it is for me. I’m learning to rest in the unknown and to find peace in knowing that this time is not a surprise to God. I want to come out on the other side of this (whatever and whenever that might look like) different. I want to be able to rest in His promises each day. Lord, let it be so." - Loran D.
