Believing in Jesus…🤔

It's been over 48 years.

"Whoever trusts in him will never be disappointed."
This verse is so true❗️.

…I've disappointed myself countless times 😭
…I've also suffered countless times when things didn't go the way I envisioned…😰
…But I've never disappointed the Lord Jesus.

Even when I was feeling down…it was the Lord who lifted me up and supported me, allowing me to recover❗️

I believe that the wonderful friends, mentors, and pastors I've been blessed with over these 48 years…are also thanks to Jesus' providence❗️
…And even now, meeting all of you, being encouraged, and receiving your prayers…is also a sign of Jesus' mercy 😢.
…Lately, perhaps because I'm getting older, I don't trust myself anymore❗️.

As I age, with my forgetfulness, memory issues, and declining physical strength, my desire to rely on Jesus grows stronger.
...Isaiah 46:4.
...'Even in old age, I will so; even when your hair turns gray, I will carry you, for I have always done so. I will carry you and deliver you.'
...When we trust in Jesus, even in our old age, He will responsibly guide us to heaven!

Therefore, you are blessed.
Shalom 😃
