It is easy to interpret silence as absence.

However, God’s silence didn’t mean He wasn’t working, it didn’t mean He didn’t care and it didn’t mean He didn’t love His people.

We know this by remembering so many prophecies fulfilled in Jesus. And now, Jesus asks us to remember His promises - which will one day be fulfilled.

So, in the silence, cling to those promises with hope - hope in a future with God where purposes are revealed and promises fulfilled.
