Read Matthew 17:9-13
Full of wonderment and questions the disciples came back down the mountain with Jesus. And Jesus broke the news to them again that not only had Elijah come and gone, but he too would soon suffer at the hands of evil men.
Not only were the disciples in amazement over seeing Jesus in his glorified state on the mountain, but now trying to imagine him suffering and dying was horrifying. This just made no sense.
So many times in life when are in the middle of something wonderful or terrible we do not grasp the meaning or value of our experience. It is only when we are able to look back with clearer perspectives that are able to appreciate what God is doing in such circumstances. Whatever you are going through today, it is neither the end nor the full story of God’s plan for you. Trust Him. His ways and His love are faithful.
