There is no greater moment of sorrow than the death of Jesus on the cross. It seemed impossible to everyone that He was gone. There was much going on in the spiritual background that no one could see. The death of Jesus proved He was human, His resurrection proved He was God.
Romans 8:28 says, ‘And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.’ (ESV)
Whatever your situation, stand in faith. God might well be doing something you cannot see or fathom. It might take a little while, but hang in there. If you give up now, you may never see the fullness of God in the land of the living. Trust that God will come through for you. This time of waiting builds character but also builds perseverance; keep going He will come.
