But I know that Jesus has not and will not ever leave you. I'm grateful to the Lord that he would encourage you from the post. Isaiah 43:2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. Jesus will always be with you. Mark Liz,

I lost my dad to liver cancer at age 24, last June which I know is not young compared to the age others have lost parents, but over this past year it's becoming more and more apparent that dad was a huge source of support and guidance. I have felt so lost on so many fronts. Dad took the role of mum and dad in mine and my sister's lives and losing him makes me feel orphaned. God has been good and so many people have been so kind in numerous ways but I do still regularly find myself in periods of anxiety and depression about my new life with no biological parents. My mind and my feelings tell me I'm all alone, so this post was a huge encouragement. Along the same lines as I read my Bible this morning in Deuteronomy, I was encouraged by Deut 4: 20, God encouraged me that as He recapped to the Israelites His past work in their lives...taking them and bringing them out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be His people, an inheritance, to increase their confidence in His future work in their lives and to assure them that He was not going to suddenly turn His back on them. So also I felt the Lord reminding me that God who has redeemed me in His love and grace, can't have gone to all the effort He did to save me, and now want to turn His back on me. It just wouldn't make sense. God continue to bless this ministry which has been more helpful than the times I've written to say thank you.

Im not sure when you posted this one but this was the perfect time for me to read it. I have thought often in the past few weeks if God had forgotten my grandma and grandpa or more especially my dad. Because why would he put my dad through all of this stuff but reading your message made me remember that they are with him now and that he does everthing for a reason and that even though my dad is hurting that God is taking care of him.
