Lion of Judah

Hello, It's been a while. For some time I have been following a YouTube channel, called Lion of Judah.
It is a Christian Channel.
When my brother died in hospice after 2 years of struggling with end stage COPD I was comforted by the chaplain of that hospital who showed empathy towards me during the time my brother was there, in bed connected up to an oxygen machine, who I visited a few times near the end of his life.
Prior to my younger brother's death, about 2 years before, during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic I lost my older brother to complications of Covid pneumonia and I went through a long period of grief. So I began going to the church of my faith, which is Catholic, after decades of non attendance, and through the weeks and months I gained a renewed sprittual revival.
I began attending mass almost daily and also I stayed for the Rosary and participated in it with about 16 or more people on any given day.
I would ask for them to pray for my wife who has serious health issues and still suffering the loss of my older brother, I often slipped into a deep depression and sometimes even cried when praying the Hail Mary while praying the decades.
One day I spoke to the hospice chaplain at our home when I was told I needed to fill out paperwork to be the guardian of my brother and the pastor told me about a YouTube channel he liked and I told him I too watched that channel online and it was a good source of spiritual comfort to me so I would like to share a link with you and you can watch it if you are willing.
Even though I am Catholic, I often read from KJV version and gain insight into other Christian points of view because I am a theological scholar and have been researching scripture for many years. This has been ongoing since I was young enough to pick up a bible and read.
I am not trying to boast about this, but merely wanted to let you know that I have been sincerely looking for answers and it seems there have been many different sources besides the Holy Bible or rather, in addition to it, I have gained a lot of insight into the life of Jesus Christ. So below I have placed a link to one of the most recent YouTube videos for you to watch and share if you want.
May the peace of the Lord be with you and I do hope everyone reading this has had a blessed day, this day of Easter.

I am so so sorry you have had some
awful times in your life, may God be with you as you
heal, he feels your pain & knows what your going through.
Never think he's not there with you, I had a hard yr
in May that just about took me out from health issues
& the 6 mons I was in the hosp, I didn't know if I was
going to make it till I started praying everyday till I
returned back home, & I take time out to pray daily.

I'm so sorry for the losses in your life and for your wife's challenges. It's good to see you again, although I have seen you on Facebook. Hoping you have a good week.

I hope you have a good week as well. So, last night a tree limb fell over from our oak tree and landed on the neighbor's driveway and on his father's old car but we got it all cleared up. It took team effort. My friend who is a Vietnam Army vet had a chain saw and the neighbor understood that the fallen limb was an act of nature. There is a chance of rain and possible high winds later. I bought a lotto ticket and told my friend, if my ticket is a winner I will split the money with him 50/50. Basically, as long as my wife is alive in my life and I have my Bible and the support of my sisters and the people at my church, I will get through this and hopefully things will improve over time.

Thank you, Judy. I keep a them both close to me in my thoughts and prayers, and have their pictures on the book shelf. It is difficult at times but I have had a lot of support from friends and family and from the church. I hope you have had a good Easter Sunday. Take care.
