Jesus offered Himself on the Cross of Christ such that once resurrected, He offered Himself to believers as their King, Lord and Saviour, to fellowship with them throughout their lives on Earth.

So it was that one person reflected on all the times when in need and not while still walking along with Jesus every day, but then noticed the change when sorrows came when only one set of footsteps remained.

The shock made that person question the promise of Jesus never to leave or forsake, so what had happened?

Jesus explained some sorrows were so grievous that He had to carry those who could not continue, or when God does not heal immediately, for when we suffer, we may learn compassion for others.

Yes, that person doubted the promise of Jesus, yet now loved the Saviour as the Good Shepherd, with even greater love and shared the story with you and I and those willing to hear and who will take such truths to heart.
