It seems that the years have gone by so quickly yet it was in the distant past that I looked like this:
I am the guy in the red tank top not the rhino sleeping. 🙂
Fast forward to today and I am an old guy with a beard.
Sometimes I wonder what I would tell my 20 year old self if I could go back and talk to myself. Perhaps I would tell myself that I found out I have an aptitude for languages, so dive in earlier. Maybe I would tell myself not to worry about situations that will be in my future. One message I know I would want to share is that Jesus certainly will be with me all along the way such as:
Jesus giving me the opportunity to share him with my stoic alcoholic father and that my father would come to Jesus one year before he would die.
Jesus would sustain me through a four year health crisis.
Jesus would lead me to a ministry of reaching out to people from all over the world.
Jesus would take me from being the perennial screw up to be someone others look to for help.
Jesus would meet me in my valley of depression and lead me out.
So many other ways that Jesus has been there for me, helped me, changed my life, so the list could go on and on.
As I look back over my life, I can see how true it is that Jesus has all power, is gentle and humble of heart, cares for us more deeply than any other person, and has come to give us life abundantly.
Dear reader whatever situation you are in, Jesus is there. Look to him and ask. The turn around may be over time or happen quickly. Either way trust him. He is more than able.
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
