This is so important to remember. Yes, the love of Jesus waits. It even rejoices in waiting. But he still meets us in our sorrow. When we come to him with our confusion and our questions—“Where were you? Why didn’t you do something?”—he doesn’t rebuke us. He says, “I know. Grief is great. I’m with you and for you. Bring your confusion. Yes, I waited. And I’m still with you because I love you.”
