Whatever 2020 took…

Whatever 2020 took, whatever you lost + can’t get back, that specific set-back, pain or fruitlessness of yesteryear—REMEMBER who you serve: the God who restores the years the locust has eaten.💛

I’m talking Joel 2:25. The harvest, livelihood + hope of God’s people were stolen—thanks to a nasty army of insects + the devastation of that ONE YEAR? Rippled into multiple, consecutive years thereafter. Sound like 2020?😩

Today, the enemy tries to steal, kill + destroy—your peace, your marriage, your faith. All it takes is ONE catastrophe + like the Israelites, we’re shaking our fists, sinking in anxiety + wondering where God is for years afterwards.

Yet God reassures, “I will restore the lost years” + His Word stands true today too. Thanks to Jesus—sin, heartache + disease do NOT hold the final word + truly, for God’s people... we can have ALL HOPE the best is yet to come. Here’s to another year with His new mercies enveloping us every morning!👊
