Morning Word from Pastor Peter Sunagawa

The Book of Proverbs was mainly written by King Solomon❗️.

...King Solomon said that when wishes are not easily granted, it is anxiety-inducing and painful. However, when those wishes are granted, it is like the Tree of Life.

...Yesterday...😢
Every week...I visited Asaki at the hospital...
She had become a Christian, and the hospital staff and the doctor in charge were working positively towards independence and self-reliance, thinking that...🤔
But...😨
...Reality just couldn't keep up with Asaki's expectations...😢
...Eventually, her expectations lingered...and turned into anxiety and disappointment...
Yesterday evening 🌇
She apparently escaped 🏃💨 while shopping with the staff...

Yesterday...I received a donation for the church and a letter for Simon...

…I pray that it will be found today 🛐
…Some of our hopes and desires will not be fulfilled immediately.
…We need to know…God's love and…God's plan.
What is needed to trust in God is…patience❗️.
…Jesus is “faithful and true”❗️.
…Romans 10:11.

"The Bible says:
'Whoever trusts in him will not be disappointed.'"
…Shalom 😃
