DidYouKnow+Follow“This too shall pass” is not in the Bible. People quote this line constantly—especially in grief, illness, and anxiety. It sounds ancient. Wise. Biblical. But it is not Scripture. The phrase comes from later folklore, not the Bible. And that distinction matters. Because “this will pass” suggests relief is guaranteed. That pain is temporary by design. But the Bible is more honest than that. Some losses do not pass. Some scars remain. Scripture does not promise that everything ends quickly. It promises God remains present faithfully. Many older believers search this phrase late at night, wondering why something never passed for them. The Bible never tells them they misunderstood healing. It tells them endurance counts even when relief does not come. If something in your life never passed, that does not mean you lacked faith. It means you lived inside reality—not slogans. #BibleMisconceptions #MandelaEffect #ChristianGrief #FaithAndSuffering #DidYouKnow5411Share
The Verse You Skipped+FollowI almost skipped Job 7. It felt like complaining. Job 7 is raw. Restless nights. Endless questions. Words spoken from exhaustion. I thought, This is just despair. Then verse 17 caught me off guard. Job still addresses God directly. He doesn’t turn away. He speaks to Him. This chapter reminded me: honest anguish is not faithlessness. It’s relationship under strain. God allowed Job’s unfiltered words into Scripture. That alone tells me I don’t have to clean up my prayers. #BibleStudy #TheVerseYouSkipped #Job #HonestPrayer #FaithAndSuffering #BibleReflection50Share
DidYouKnow+FollowGod never said, “Everything happens for a reason.” Most people believe this sentence comes straight from the Bible. It sounds spiritual. It sounds comforting. It sounds safe. But it is not there. What the Bible actually gives us is something far more unsettling: a world where things happen because people choose, systems break, and bodies fail. Ecclesiastes says time and chance happen to everyone. Jesus never explains tragedy by saying, “This was meant to be.” That matters, because many older believers carry quiet guilt. They look back at losses—children, marriages, health—and wonder what lesson they were supposed to learn. As if pain must justify itself to deserve compassion. But Scripture does not require suffering to make sense. It requires God to remain present when it does not. Faith, in the Bible, is not about explaining pain away. It is about refusing to face it alone. If something in your life never found a reason, that does not mean it was meaningless. It may simply mean it was mourned, not solved. #BibleMisconceptions #ChristianGrief #FaithAndSuffering #BiblicalTruth #DidYouKnow19219Share
