“Jesus will turn your sorrow into joy. One can only imagine the shock and bewilderment the Apostles felt when the Lord told them he must go away. Though they could not understand it at the time, his departure was for their benefit. The same is true of the unexpected setbacks and tragedies we experience in this life...When I consider the times when I have been confounded by events that seemed so contrary to what I thought God wanted for me, I should be mindful that they were permitted by the Lord's inscrutable providence for my own good, as difficult as that might be to fathom.” ShouldHas BeensMightWantedJoyTurnsJesusFeltDifficultMy OwnLordImagineEventsSorrowBenefitsTragedyContraryThis LifeShockUnexpectedGoing AwayProvidenceApostlesSetbackDepartureFathomBewildermentInscrutable Author:Patrick Madrid
