My help comes from the Lord,
which made heaven and earth.
Psalm 121:1
I am doing the right thing by trusting in the Lord, always looking to Him alone for my help, and resting in the truth of every one of His precious promises...

One of my very favorite verses in the Old Testament is Nahum 1:7, which says, "The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knows them that trust in Him." And where the word 'know' appears, I believe it refers to those who know the Creator in an intimate way. It's more than merely knowing about God; it's knowing Him personally.
Furthermore, the Lord Jesus said that His disciples are to always be of "good cheer" because He has already overcome the world (John 16:33). Therefore, I have peace in the midst of prison. If Christ is with me, who can be against me? Who can accuse those who, by the grace of God, have already been justified by Him? Thus, I testify today, that a loving and merciful God has been faithful to keep me alive for 56 years. I don't deserve this, but I am thankful.
