...who fights fear?

‎"I don’t want any of the things that I fear to happen, but this I know, if they do, my God will take care of me." - Beth Moore

 

Sometimes fear almost overtakes me.

I really do believe in God.

I believe He loves me.

I trust Him.

I do.

Do I really?

Can I trust Him with my life?

Can I trust Him with my children's future?

Can I trust Him with my husband's life?

I'm trying.

I'm doing my best.

I don't want to doubt.

But that's what happens when the fear gets too strong.

I must fight the doubts.

I must fight the fear.

If I don't, they will control me and my family will suffer.

I must not cling too tightly to what I know.

I must not demand my own way in this.

God cannot work freely if my fists are closed, grasping.

I must trust.

I must trust Him to grant me the strength He has promised

to renew every morning! 

I must rely on the grace He offers from His unlimited store!

I must believe that He will continue to provide for us as He so graciously has to this point!

I must remember all the wonderful ways in which He has made Himself known to our family over the past two years!

I must focus on HIM...not my weaknesses...

On HIM....not my limited vision....

On HIM...not my lack of wisdom...

On HIM...not my failures...

On HIM....and HIM alone.

Then I can say along with Beth,

 

‎"I don’t want any of the things that I fear to happen, but this I know, if they do, my God will take care of me."

 

 

Learning to trust,
