Resolved – not resigned.
Is not passive resignation – whatever will be will be – born out of a sense of helplessness and hopelessness.
This is Resolve, which comes from an encounter with the Father who strengthens us for whatever we must face – with confident assurance that His will and His ways really are best. Even when we don’t understand them.
The cup was not taken from Christ, but he entrusted himself to the Father. Paul’s thorn in the flesh was not removed, but through it he learned the power of grace-filled life.
It is this resolve that can carry us in the times when life is hard, when circumstances are painful, and when our questions seem to go unanswered.
The Resolve to trust is a supernatural supply when faith seems to make little or no sense.
