Hold on
You and I might not know the how’s and when’s of God’s ways, but this one thing I know, Jesus never says a thing that he cannot do and does not mean. He has said in John 14:18; “I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.”. He said “come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
Hebrews 13:5 “let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said I will never leave thee nor forsake thee”
God bless you all.
