On Saturday, Justin Bieber posted a short message regarding his beliefs on Instagram while his former close friend Sean “Diddy” Combs deals with serious criminal allegations including sexual assault, abuse, sex trafficking, and other disturbing accusations.
“How can I genuinely trust that Jesus is by my side?” Bieber, 30, inquired on his Instagram Story. He then provided this reply: “For me, Justin, it’s [sic] just his goodness that continues to persuade me.”
“Whenever I believed he wouldn’t [sic] be there for me, he always was. I’m certain he’s [sic] the ideal patient presence who guides, directs, and leads me throughout my life, healing and restoring everything the enemy attempted to ruin and take away.”
The message from the “Lonely” singer arrived months after reports indicated that Bieber was facing mental health challenges after Combs’ arrest in September.
In October, multiple insiders connected to Bieber informed Us Weekly that he was “struggling mentally” due to his “past” with the Bad Boy Records founder, and processing the news of the allegations involving Combs was “difficult.”

Bieber’s name was mentioned multiple times because of his past friendship with the “Last Night” rapper when he was a teenager.
Another source claimed that the “Never Say Never” hitmaker felt “utterly revolted” by the sex crime controversy surrounding Combs and had been “counseled” to publicly separate himself from the shamed star.
However, a third source stated that the singer had managed to find comfort by concentrating on the positives in his life, such as his newborn son, Jack Blues, whom he and his wife Hailey Bieber welcomed earlier this year.
