02/09/23 GOD IS FAITHFUL

One of the ways that 2022 was such a difficult year for me included my physical condition. Really difficult. In spite of my problems and my inability to keep fit, at a body weight near 210, I was able to do a bench press with 175 pounds (80% of my body weight at that time). I mention this because my physical problems continued into 2023 resulting in medical procedures and a present body weight of 166 pounds today. My strength is greatly depleted. Still, by God's will and intervention I am hopeful of recovery. During all of this, Martha has been more support and encouragement than words could ever tell. God gave me a wife beyond my deserving.

Yet, all of my personal issues are insignificant compared to other testing taking place in our family at this time. But God is all we need and He will not fail us, regardless of our trials. Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised. 

I post this, not as a complaint, but as a testimony to God's glory, power, mercy kindness, wisdom and love. 

I don't know what tomorrow holds, but I do know Who holds tomorrow. He has never failed, and He never will fail.

Not only is God good, all the time, He is good to those who trust Him, and He causes all things to work together for good to those who love Him, to those who are called according to His purpose.
