2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 148
by Walt Martin on May 28th, 2026
The God revealed in Jesus is not indifferent to our pain. He is the God who stands beside a tomb and cries. That truth has become increasingly real to me over the past months. There are questions that remain unanswered. There are losses that cannot simply be explained away. There are moments when resurrection still feels far off.

Faith is not always instant full understanding. Sometimes it is the slow opening of the eyes. The gradual realization that Jesus is more than we first imagined.

Fear narrows vision. Fear protects systems over people. Fear silences testimony. Fear resists transformation. Fear clings to certainty instead of surrender. But, new creation has a way of disrupting old categories. Read More
