Greetings @creativemary ,

What a lovely written expression of your thoughts and experiences in this side trip you are being taken on.

If you read Psalms and Proverbs....you will find great encouragement.

...'And the LORD, He it is that doth go before thee; He will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.' Deuteronomy 31.8

It is faith alone in Christ alone for salvation.

Wishing you all the best.
