Dear Fear…

“Dear Fear, you must have hated today. Sorry for the bloody nose. I’m doing it again tomorrow though. Get ready, sucker!” – Jon Acuff
This got me thinking.  This is more than just bumper sticker mentality…this is TRUTH!
TRUTH given to us by Jesus: John 14:24 (NLT) “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.”
TRUTH given to us by John: 1 John 4:18-19 (NLT) 18 Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. 19 We love each other because he loved us first.
TRUTH given to us by Paul: 2 Timothy 1:7 (NLT) For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.
Be blessed Brothers & Sisters! We serve an awesome God! He wants us operating from a position of LOVE and not FEAR! He sent His only son so that we can live this out!
