About 5 years ago, I left the church and became lukewarm. Meanwhile I developed acute arthritis on the left knee and had difficulty climbing a building without an elevator. Still less, the hearing on the left ear worsened due to the aftereffects of brain tumor surgery and I was diagnosed with hearing impairment at the end of 2023. Then, I began wearing a hearing aid. ...
My heavenly Father, I have prayed with an unchanging heart Since 10 years ago, 20 years ago, and even 30 years ago.
As the shepherd of this church, My heart has been ever the same before Thee.
Even when I couldn't see any way out, I just thought of Thy blessing and glory at the end of the way.
At every moment of my life, I have been single-minded for Thee, for my Lord Jesus, and for the souls.
Even in situations that caused my eyes to blur and my ears to ring, I just thought of Thy will that was contained in it.
To my beloved ones whom I've been guiding, I want to give only fullness, joy, and happiness.
My dear Father, Today, tomorrow, and for the days that are to come, This, Thy son, is marching forward Harboring the great and magnificent works that You have prepared.
