In today's GB News Daily Reflection, we acknowledge that however strong our faith, waiting is hard, all the more so when the source of our hope is unseen.

"Easter was a decisive moment, game changing. Yet we still await the day when Christ will return and all will be set right. The gospel stories end with Jesus rising or ascending to heaven.
"It's a moment of departure, normally cause for sadness. And yet we discover Jesus disciples rejoicing. How so?
