Remember,
refocus,
move forward,
trust,
and finally … hope.
Our hope is not in the things of this world,
or even in the other people Jesus commanded us to love as we love ourselves.
Our hope is in Christ Jesus,
who died to save us from the power of sin
and its consequence of death,
by humbling Himself
as He died on the cross.
In that moment,
He took on what we could never bear.
That’s love.
In fact,
Jesus is God’s most eloquent
and extravagant expression of love for us.
Christ will again return.
There will be no more death,
all wrongs will be made right,
and sickness and pain healed.
We don’t know what each day will bring.
There is no way for us to redict….
