What are You Afraid of?

Good Morning! Boy I am tired of the rain and could really use the SUN... We will at least get more daylight with the clocks changing this morning. Good week here, but All week I had some apprehension about my my tax appointment... And it ended up being better than I anticipated. We are All afraid of Something... Most of Us, Too Many Things! So often our fears revolve around Health, for us or our loved ones, or Finances in some way. I have talked before about FEAR as an accronym (False Expectations About Reality) We need to know FEAR is our enemy. FEAR is like a shadow. It follows you Everywhere but doesn't actually exist! I've heard it said, Fear Not in some form is mentioned in the bible 365 times... one for each day. While this may not be entirely accurate it doesn't take away from the fact that Do Not Be Afraid is often talked about in the bible. FEAR leads us to rely on Ourselves instead of Relying on GOD! None of us want to be uncomfortable but realize there are definitely going to bumps in the road and it is Not Easy. The Devil wants you to FEAR! Please don't be ruled by your Fears! The more we can Rely on GOD and not on Ourselves the better we will be able to handle these Bumps! Love More, Pray More, Fear Less! Have a Great Week!
