Today, I have peace that Jesus will never leave me or forsake me. I also have sonevpeace about my role as a caregiver to my Mom.
The last thing that really concerns me, and I would appreciate sone honest input is this. I admit Ive bern angry at God re: my Mother's death. Evidently, this is a pretty common emotion. Im just so sorrowful. My concern is, you know how Jesus speaks of loving father or mother more than Him. I dont want to do that but I fear maybe I gave and I do and this is where I get scared about my salvation. I have asked the Lord to forgive me for the anger and to help me to love Him most. Will He answer this prayer? I would love to have a day I felt total peace!!!! ThNk you!!!

Trust in The LORD Jesus in His perfection in His performance In His Victory.. Do not place your trust in your own performance because as we all know our performance in this life will not be anywhere near as good as the LORD's performance in His time in this world.. Trust in the Atonement of the LORD Jesus that covers your failures.. If you do that you will find the peace of mind that will last your whole life through..

Shoshie, I was recently in a similar predicament where I began to put someone very close to me other than the Lord on that one pedestal we all have in our lives. And I believe the Lord Himself allowed a few trials to unfold that not only showed me, but quite possibly my close friend as well, He had started to be replaced on that pedestal. But because I wasn't fully trusting Him in a hectic moment, I wasn't strong enough(His strength) to do the right thing concerning this loved one. And it cost me dearly.

I pray the Lord gently restores with lessons learned to move forward and become stronger and more faithful in these similar times ahead. In Jesus name, Amen!
