Sometimes the hardest seasons feel endless—but Jesus reminds us they are only “a little while.” In John 16, He prepares His disciples for deep sorrow, while pointing them to the unstoppable joy of the resurrection. What feels overwhelming in the moment is temporary in light of eternity. Because Christ lives, sorrow never gets the final word.
