It is a great misfortune under the sun that not nearly everyone gets to live to be old and gray-haired, but many of us have to go beyond the limit of time already young, some even as babies. It is also worth remembering that for many people it is a great liberation to pass from time to eternity from seeing the evil of this world and experiencing pain at a young age. That's why it's good to know that every person's life here in time is uniquely valuable and every person is dear to the Creator!
How sure is the protection?
If we have given our lives completely to Adonai Yeshua and to be led by his Holy Spirit, then he himself, Yeshua our Creator, will take care of us throughout our life on earth. After that, he leads us to the sources of eternal life in Paradise, as promised in the Book of Revelation. The Book of Revelation is given by Father Elohim for instruction and comfort to all of us chosen in the New Covenant.
As we age, we become weak
During that process, we are undressed for the ascension to heaven and taught in a very practical way that we are completely dependent on the help of our Creator, which he influences and implements through our neighbors. Many of us have to spend the rest of our earthly lives either in relative care or in a nursing home. The same thing happened to my mother, who got dementia. He received good care in a dementia care home in Borås, Sweden.
As we grow older, we learn to understand more clearly how the world is full of vanity and strive to hide permanent spiritual treasures within us like the writer of Psalm 119, because the visible treasures are temporal, but the invisible ones are eternal. In addition, we are happy to be diligent in doing good deeds, because they are necessary for our suffering neighbors and acceptable to our Creator. As they get older, many become seriously ill and need our help.
In my opinion, the most valuable act is to tell our neighbors who are ignorant of the faith, how they can be saved. Just yesterday I was in a scenic forest, where I met an 81-year-old man sitting on a bench along the fitness track. He was walking his grandson's wonderful dog, the Finnish Lapphund, of which you can see a picture I picked up from the internet below. The dog was just that kind of sly and playful.
He listened carefully and said that he had often experienced clear supernatural help and guidance when he was a truck driver for years in Finland, in some other European countries and Russia. I told that it was a guardian angel, the kind we all have throughout our lives. He admitted that he had sinned a lot. I told Adonai Yeshua also atoned for all his sins when he died on the cross of Calvary.
He was puzzled by the fact that the Bibles have been changed so much during their translation and that there so many religions and Christian groups and denominations that argue about doctrinal issues. I advised him to give his life to Adonai Yeshua, his Creator and Redeemer, and Yeshua would guide him to the 'right doctrine'. I told that for 36 years I have not belonged to any Christian congregation or church because the Holy Spirit has guided me to see how much they have strayed from the apostolic truths.
Then he had to go take the dog to his grandson who was coming home from work. I wished him the blessing of the Most High and he wished me the same. I will take him with his relatives in my prayers before Adonai Yeshua, so that he would remind him how precious his search time is!Extracts from Psalm 119
I have recently read the marathon psalm for the very umpteenth time and it always refreshes my old and sick heart. Verse 130 spoke to me ( Acc. to CJB version)
>>Your words are a doorway that lets in light, giving understanding to the thoughtless.<<
That fits well with the teaching of Adonai Yeshua, who is the Word of Elohim:
John 10:7-10
>>7 So Yeshua said to them again, "I tell you the solemn truth, I am the door for the sheep. 8 All who came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9 I am the door. If anyone enters through me, he will be saved, and will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come so that they may have life, and may have it abundantly..."<<
Without the light given us by Adonai Yeshua, we would all be wandering in spiritual darkness with no hope of salvation. Let us read his precious teachings and let them all be imperishable treasures to our hearts!
