We will all face difficult times at some point in our lives. The closeness of our relationship will determine how well we will deal with those difficulties. Sixty-five years ago five missionaries set out to contact a tribe in the Amazon that had been left alone. Five days later all the missionaries had been killed in their contact with the tribe. Their five wives pressed on and eventually led many of that tribe to Christ. The disciples were facing overwhelming difficulty as they came to grips with the Lord’s imminent departure. The Lord gave them the essentials to keep going on even though things seemed impossible. The Lord’s counsel works for us as well today.
