Oh my word - the list of fears is HUGE! But we have a God who is bigger than them all - we really do!
There have been so many moments in my life where fear had a grip on me. And while I knew the solution, I was petrified to walk into it. People would ask me "what does God's word say?" and to be honest, I could grab onto a couple of scriptures in my heart, but the fear was so crippling to me that I could not even reach for or open the Bible that was sitting 3 feet from me. It was THAT bad and NOT a fun place to be. But eventually, sometimes in hours, sometimes in days, and sadly sometimes in weeks, I would reach for God's word and AFTER putting myself through all the torment of living in that fear, reading His word would calm me, bring me peace and very often direction. Giants are not fun. Giants can indeed rule our lives if we let them. But I am living proof, that while I don't know all the answers, I do know a God who does and He is faithful to those who believe. Take solace in God's word and fight the incredible fears with it. Read God's word from the perspective that YOU are one of His children and He wants to protect you and raise you above all the giants. Bless yourself. <3 |
