The Weight of Love: Reflections on Jesus' Death and ResurrectionSample

Some of the hardest moments in life are the ones where nothing seems to be happening. We’re waiting for answers, longing for change, wondering if God even hears us.

That’s what Jesus’ followers felt the day after his crucifixion. They had seen him perform miracles, heal the sick, even raise the dead. But now, their hope was lying dead in a tomb. What they didn’t realize was that even in the waiting, God was at work. Resurrection was coming.

Maybe you’re in a season where God feels distant. You’ve prayed, but the answer hasn’t come. You’ve hoped, but nothing has changed. The silence feels heavy. But remember this: just because you can’t see God working doesn’t mean he isn’t. The waiting isn’t wasted. He is preparing something greater than you can imagine. Will you trust him in the in-between?
