Fear

Today we are talking about FEAR.

Fear has two definitions:

Forget Everything And Run

or

False Evidence Appearing Real

Do Not Fear

Did you know that there are 365 bible verses that tell us, ‘Fear Not’ or ‘Do Not Be Afraid’?

That’s one verse for every. day. of. the. year.

I don’t know about you, but I think God may be trying to tell me something.

Like I don’t have to fear what the future holds – He is already there.

I don’t have to fear whether or not He will provide – He always has and He always will.

I don’t have to fear what will become of my children. I just have to turn them over to Him and He will work all things out for their good.

I don’t have to fear the war.

I don’t have to fear my enemies.

I don’t have to fear the unknown.

I just have to trust Him.

I have to trust Him that it will all work out according to His plans and His will for my life.

I have to trust that I am where I’m supposed to be.

I have to demonstrate faith and hope for my children that the God of the Universe is there for them and loves them.

So, for the foreseeable future, I will choose to define fear as False Evidence Appearing Real.

  1. Close to you at #Reflect….it is truly a gift to us that He has spoken so many times in His word to fear not. I am thinking about my in between times, before the prayer is answered and know that I am to hold fast without wavering to His promises and stand fast with my feet firmly planted in His Word. Thanks for the blessing of your encouragement and reminders today. Bless you.
