Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day… (John 11:24)

If you feel you are in a black hole, don't give up. There's a way out.

“I am the resurrection and the life “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die… (John 11:25-26)
