What would life look like without fear?

8/26/2021

As a single divorced mom, I felt lost and alone.  Everywhere I looked was filtered through a lens of fear! Almost like looking through glasses.  Everything I saw was processed through a false message I later learned about, that lead me to believe I could not trust anyone, was unlovable, hopeless to change and deserving of punishment.  But I had it all wrong...

Have you ever felt like fear ran your life, being afraid that something bad might happen to you or to someone else you loved?  Worried about what tomorrow would bring, never being able to enjoy today?  If you have, I understand your struggle, and to be honest still deal with fear when I loose sight of the peace God gives when I place my trust in Him and Him alone.  I know that may sound cliché, and I honestly didn't believe it myself until it happened to me, but I know that if God can do it in my life, He can do it in yours! 

It starts with a place of surrender.  A heart willing to be vulnerable and open with God about how you feel.  It may create tears as you get really honest with the things you are afraid of.  But in those tears and acts of surrender, as you call out for God to help you, He begins to bring into your heart a different perspective.  A NEW set of lenses that allows you to feel His peace, and then carry it with you wherever you go!

I learned on my journey I was NOT unloveable, but was beautifully and wonderfully made.  I learned that God is NOT a punitive God ready to strike me with a bolt of lightning for making a mistake.  I learned I was created in God's image, which means I have the power of the living God living inside of me that has already crushed everything in this world that causes us to be afraid!  But this message of hope and peace is not just for me.  It is a message God has given to anyone who believes in Him!  To anyone that feels lost and afraid and chooses to be still for a moment, focus their mind on God and talk to Him like they are to talking to a friend!

I challenge you to LET GO and LET GOD! If you really want to feel the peace that surpasses all understanding spoken about in Philippians 4:7; all you have to do is ask the God that loves you, cares for you, and is sitting right beside you for help! 

And if you don't know how to ask, let me pray with you now...

Lord God, I pray you help the person that is reading these words to believe you are here in this room sitting right there beside them.  I pray they are able to feel your presence and grow deeper in their trust of you.  Father I pray that the fear they carry will  be taken from them and the peace you promise be given to them in fears place.  May your peace surpass their understanding, and filter through all of their thoughts that the enemy would want to use to destroy them.  May they feel your love Father God and know they are not alone.  Fill them with the peace you give so they may experience you in a new way today.  And give them your strength to be reminded to continue to bring their fears to you until they no longer struggle to find it.  Thank you God for your peace Jesus!

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Phillipians 4:7
