Today, we confront the agonizing mystery of God&#8217;s silence and the profound cry of Jesus on the Cross: &#8220;My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?&#8221; We will explore how our own indifference often silences God, and how the Father and the Son underwent a painful process of &#8220;letting go&#8221; and \u201csurrendering\u201d out of astonishing love for us. By looking at Jesus&#8217; ultimate abandonment, we are invited to thin our own egos, release our illusion of control, and embrace the true Spirit of Surrender.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":54042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[127],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-54047","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-how-not-to-miss-god-voice"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54047","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54047"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54047\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":54074,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54047\/revisions\/54074"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54042"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54047"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54047"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lent.fll.cc\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54047"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
