- From Psalm 16
Every year, every Easter . . . the world misses a great and profound truth from Scripture.
When this word, "for" is used at the start of a sentence, it means that a conclusive, or critical phrase is about to follow.
Why has God done all of this? Why has He let us endure trials? Why has He laid out His plan for us? Why did Christ live, teacher, die, and be resurrected?
"For you will not abandon me to the grave."
Don't worry. Death is not the end. We will not be abandoned there. "My God, why have you forsaken me?" Even Christ felt despair when faced with the horror of death. It is the loneliest place. For survivors . . . life becomes lonesome, because of death.
But we are not abandoned there. If there is a waiting period . . . if there is sadness and trouble - - - fear not!
For He has not truly abandoned us.
