In John 16:7 Christ tells his disciples that it is better for him to go away so that his Spirit can come and be with them. The idea that the Spirit’s presence is more advantageous to us than Christ’s physical presence is puzzling, but it was meant to be a gift? What’s inside this package?

We all have relics of unbelief we like to hold and ruminate on, but as Christ followers, we have God’s faithfulness to consider. His faithfulness opens to us a land full of promise that we can trust.
