Jesus never left his disciples without assuring them that even though He was going to be physically absent, He will still be available for his disciples. We need to face life with confidence knowing that we are not orphans but we have a God who takes care of us.

It is possible for us to be so much engrossed by what was that we miss on what is happening. God is asking us to move strong in faith, every disappointment is always an appointment with him. Unless we move with the times, we risk becoming history

Many times we find ourselves waiting for the fulfilment of God's promises unaware what will happen. Like the discouraged disciples not knowing what will become of them after the death of their Master, we can trust God to fulfilling what He has promised.
