A popular message of faith shared on social media

Below is the translation from Spanish of a wonderful reflection on faith shared on social media:
“Every great trial is followed by a great blessing, because God never leaves us alone during our difficult moments. Every challenge, every pain, and every suffering we face serves a purpose in His hands. As our Lord and Savior, He transforms our trials into opportunities to grow in faith, patience, and love. Even though we may not always understand the path, let us trust that His will is good and perfect. Rather than becoming discouraged by difficulties, let us draw closer to Jesus through prayer and the sacraments. Every tear shed in faith is a seed of blessing. Allow God to act, and you will see how joy and spiritual strength emerge from what once seemed like pain”.
Note: Some posts attribute part of this text to Father Fernando Abraham, an Argentine Catholic priest.

A powerful and encouraging message to trust in God in hard times, for His timing is always perfect:

Why do you despair?
Why do you doubt?
Why do you allow your mind to prevail over your faith?
Why do you want to give up on everything?
Today, God wants to remind you that He is the master of time and that He is working to give an answer to your situation.
