There are many more people like the gentle man used in your reflection. I am one of them. I am always doubting myself, asking if I am doing the will of God as He desires. I know I am not neither do trusty fears and problems to God, though I profess that easily to others. It is easier said than done. It is tough to be fear-free in the midst of all the bombardment of evils happening all over around us. I pray for courage and wisdom to answer to the will of God before I depart. Thanks and God bless you and your family for your evangelization.

At times we all ask questions and have doubts. Stick with the plan and it always works out. The fear part can be scary but the faith part always rules. Very nice reflection.

I was also a runner for 23 years and ran countless races until my knees went. I have 4 children and 10 grandchildren and I am glad you
have the faith and practice it. Keep going for we all have many trials and sorrows but He is real and
will be with us all the way. He doesn’t expect perfection but faith and He’ll keep working to make us more and more like Him. God bless you and your family. Turn all suffering over to God. Trust in him.
