You know that little word called fear? It's always getting in my way, and it probably gets in your way, too. Fear of change, fear of people, fear of trying something new, fear of leaving the past behind….there are so many fears. Fears that if allowed to remain, cripple our ability to be and do what God wants, to fully live in the freedom He offers. But listen!

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.

1 John 4:18

 The closer were are to the source of love, the less there is to be afraid about. Knowing His love has everything in control, what is there left to fear? The change is what's best for us, what people think doesn't matter, the new things are opportunities for growth, and the past can be the past forever. Say goodbye to fear and live in His love!

For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, "Abba! Father!"

Romans 8:15
