2 Timothy 2:12

If we persevere…

St. Norbert

God Never Walks Away

There is so much we bear daily in our human condition: illness, grief, loss, pain, loneliness and disappointments. However, if we trust that God is faithful, we will persevere.

If we persevere, we will understand that God’s love is unchained and eternal. If we persevere, we will understand and know that if we die in any way, we will surely rise into new life, so why be afraid?

If we persevere, we will find that our grief and disappointments do not stay with us, but God’s friendship and companionship remain long after. If we persevere, we will see that there has never been a moment when God walked away from us or left us in despair.

If we persevere, we will understand how eager God has been to heal our every wound.

Loving God, help me persevere.
