I am delighted, dear friend, that you are trusting in the Lord. Here is what Saint Padre Pio says to you:
"Well, then, always place your confidence in Jesus, and He will know how to comfort your soul, even when it is tossed about in a stormy sea. Never be afraid of the enemy's enticements, for no matter how strong they may be, they will never be able to sweep you into the enemy's nets, as long as you remain faithful to the Lord and on your guard, while you build up your strength by prayer and holy humility. God has promised that He 'opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble' [James 4:6; 1 Peter 5:5]. God has promised that those who 'watch and pray' will not 'enter into temptation' [Matthew 26:41; Mark 14:38]. What are you afraid of, then? Is our God not faithful to His promises?" (Letters 2, pages 500-501)
Yes, God is faithful, my dear friend. He will never let go of you!
