Talk about real and serious love. Unconditional, yes. But also undefeatable.

This sounds like the stuff of fairy tales. But it is the original true story upon which every other delightful tale has ever been based.

Yet, it is easy to doubt or forget the victory His delight has already secured in moments — and days — of silence and waiting.

Still, it it the waiting that makes the joyful surprise of the revealed victory complete in our hearts.

So let your heart mourn what had to be. And then anticipate the good that will come tomorrow.
