He is always reaching out to reconnect.
I need to remember not to let the trials in my life tear me down, but to use them to build my confidence in the Lord. The trials (if I choose to let them) will produce wisdom and perseverance (hupomone) which will in turn produce maturity. Though my courage and strength will fail from time to time, I find great comfort in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Knowing that one day I will be raised to a new life, complete and lacking nothing, and then I will be able to serve Him without fault forever. He is my security. Although I might not always be with Him, He is always with me.
