Short Reflection (John 15:26–16:4a) Sometimes, doing the right thing doesn’t bring peace—it brings resistance. Jesus never promised an easy path, but He promised the Spirit of Truth to guide and strengthen us. When you feel misunderstood, rejected, or alone, remember: you are not abandoned—you are being formed. The Holy Spirit is quietly working within you, giving you courage to stand, and love to continue, even when it’s hard. Today, don’t ask, “Why is this happening to me?” Ask instead, “How can I remain faithful in this moment?” Because even in struggle, God is still with you—and still working through you. 🙏
