There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made in perfect love.
- 1 John 4:18
Can you imagine never having fear?
What if you didn’t have to be afraid of being hurt, disappointed, rejected, or alone?
What if you could rest knowing that despite what the future holds for you, you could have peace?
God’s Word tells us that we don’t have to fear judgment or eternity when we belong to Christ.
Once we put our trust in Him, we can rest in His love and forgiveness.
Then, as we turn to Jesus daily, His love envelopes us, comforts us, and gives us peace.
The more we draw near to Him, the more we understand His ways and can rely on Him to meet our every need.
But, God doesn’t want you to keep His love all to yourself. Instead, He desires that you love others with the love you have experienced from Him.
Today, ask God to give you opportunities to show Him to others. Trust Him to put people in your life that need to know His all-powerful, saving grace!
With Love,

I really think I was taught to worry and fear. If I worried, I thought this just meant I cared about what happened. If I was afraid, it made me more diligent to do things correctly. Then one day the Holy Spirit revealed to me that instead of being afraid or worried about my self or my loved ones or what was going on in the world, I could intercede in prayer and give these things in a confident attitude to God who has all the answers to my worries and enormous LOVE to cover all my fears. Wow, now I know how freedom feels!!
