Tomorrow, you may hear that things are getting worse.
One day, you may hear that this is as bad as it’s ever been.
You may hear that a pandemic has killed multitudes more.
You may hear that the world will never be the same.
But one day, the sun will rise and the news will better.
The deaths and infections will be trending down.
You will be able to embrace the ones you love.
Our churches will gather again, and the exquisite sound of corporate worship will fill the air.
The parks will fill with folks that will feel the warm summer air that echos children playing.
The news will have stories of the heroes in scrubs and big rigs that looked the devil in the eye and helped us survive.
One day the sun will rise, because the Son has risen.
God became man, and defeated the curse that leads us to death.
That is our hope.
That is why we wait, we pray, and we continue on.
One day the sun will rise.
