Corona Captivity

Well I don't even know what day we are on of "social distancing" and this Coronavirus captivity.  Currently we are all "safer at home" and just waiting for the peak hoping that we have "flattened the curve" even a little bit in comparison to Italy.

And so I wait
And I have moments of crying and moments of joy
And moments of crying with joy

Laying on my bed weeping because after waiting in line outside at Ralphs the store had no bread, no eggs, no paper products, no Eggos, barely any fruit and a 2 milk maximum.  The contrast just overwhelmed me and I wish that I would never again complain about having to go to the grocery store.



Snuggling my kids on the couch while the rain comes down and we watch Armageddon.  "And I don't want to miss a thing."  I did not miss the opportunity to kiss their heads, smell their sweet hair and just soak it in and thank God. "And I just want to be with you right here with you just like this..."



Watching my home being turned into a live stream studio on Sunday morning and then marveling at how connected I felt to my church family.  Seeing Stephen and "The Bicker Band" and taking communion with water and coffee cake.  My cup runneth over.
