Recognizing the Shepherd, Entering the Gate

“Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” Even in the time of Jesus Christ, corruption was already present. The world has always carried both light and darkness—good and evil, justice and oppression. Nothing about our time is entirely new. And maybe that’s the point: suffering is not something we outgrow as humanity. It stays. It evolves. It finds new forms. Yet, in the middle of it, we are still called not to despair, but to hope; because our hope is in Him.
