As believers, it can be challenging to grasp the idea that all things are within our control, especially when our experiences don’t align with our expectations. However, the writer of Hebrews encourages us in the second chapter of Hebrews, not to be discouraged when the facts don’t match our hopes. Instead, we should look to Jesus, who overcame profound disappointment and offers us a helping hand when we feel discouraged and begin to lose hope.
On the Mount of Olives, Jesus faced not only betrayal but also the heartbreaking truth that every one of His disciples would stumble, doubt, and abandon Him before the night ended. He had invested His life in them, yet the outcome did not yet reflect His past investment. We often encounter heartbreak, failure, and disappointment even when we have been obedient and have done everything right. However, like an unsolved puzzle, God still places all the pieces in our hands.
Like a loving Father, He encourages us to keep moving forward, to take the next step, and to fit another piece of the puzzle into place without giving up or forcing the outcome. Keep holding on to that piece; trust the process, and you will see the glory!
