God Carries and Sustains Us—Rosie Krom

My story:

#affirmationoftheday God carries and sustains you. "I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you." - Isaiah 46:4

Rosie Krom became a followerof Jesus in 1997 and has not let life's hardship make her lose faith in God. When her husband divorced her, she became a single mum who had to raise two children on her own. Rosie kept on believing that God would see her through.

"It was so hard. I don't know where I would've been without the Wilcott family who I worked for as a domestic worker. They adopted me into their family and helped me with school fees, transport money, and much more. With their help I've been able to raise my kids.

My church family has also been very supportive. What I like about my church is that the Bible is the standard.

I remember when my daughter, Nkele, was four years old and participated in making a Mother's Day video at Sunday school. She said, 'When I grow up I want to build a house for my Mum.' I used to wonder how that could ever come true.

But we have a God who picks us up and carries us all the way through when we can't walk anymore. That's why Isaiah 46:4 is my favourite scripture.

My daughter graduated with a teaching degree, and she saved money for two years for a deposit on a house for me. She kept her promise.

Earlier this year, my son got married and I'm blessed to be a grandmother. God is so good to me!"

The perfect Father chooses mercy over judgment and connection over correction, and he celebrates repentance, calling us to reflect His love and grace.

Submission begins with surrender to God. Following Jesus' example, we lay down self-will, serve others in love, and trust his direction daily.

Jesus was full of grace and truth. Wisdom knows when to comfort, when to correct, and how to speak with love, discernment, and humility.
