Resting

After you have recognized your fear and given it to God, rest. Thank God for release and rest. Celebrate the rest. It feels good to rest, doesn't it? enough for now.

Remember

Remember. As I woke this morning I find myself remembering my house and the remodeling I did while there. That was a peaceful remembrance. Then I recognized that today was the fifteenth anniversary of the attack- 911. And, as many still do, I remembered where I was when we heard the news about the planes hitting the two towers, and then the Pentagon, and then, and then. That is a sad memory, but one still valid. I remember with others. My remembrance will not be the same as others, it is still valid. We all suffered - whether directly or indirectly. 

Today, pause with me for hope for all, no matter where you are. Pause for a time of peace for you and for all who exist on this planet. As you pause, get outside of yourself to see what you can do to make where you are safer, stronger, more peaceful. When I was young, in Sunday School we sang, "Brighten the corner where you are." What can you do to brighten the corner where you are? enough for now.

Still More

Have you found Truth to the lie that is behind your fear? Let's do this again. Yes, we all fear something but it can be overcome because Hod did not give us a spirit of fear, but of love, power, and a sound mind. Ok, so we know we can indeed walk free from whatever the fear looks like. Can you imagine the freedom? Start there and walk toward it. You don't have to imagine, but can live a fear free life. 

I bless you with hearing clearly from Holy Spirit. I silence the voice of the enemy. I silence your voice. Let's get started. 
On a sheet of paper write down that fear in the middle of the page. Draw a circle around it. From that circle draw a line out and write down how what the fear has cost you. Now, circle that. Stay there until you don't hear anything else.  Look at it. It has been a heavy load, hasn't it? Can you continue to carry that load?  No? I didn't think so.  Give that to God. Tell all that it has done to you. You see, there is power in speaking it out to God.  Rest there. enough for now.

New Day

What is the lie behind your fear? Take your time. When you recognize the lie, then get the Truth. And walk in that. It will take a while, because the lie has been so ingrained that it had made a rut, a grove, a pattern. Ah, but now- the Truth will begin a new pattern, a pattern of freedom. Let's go. Happy Labor day to those in America. Happy day of new pattern to all. enough for now.

It is a Celebration

Yesterday was my sister's birthday. Today is my middle grandson's birthday. I love celebrating life. I love being able to see another year for them- for me. I love life. I love celebrating the life God has given. Oh celebrate life today. Celebrate what God is doing in your life. The more you celebrate, the more you will see. Watch what God is doing, and celebrate life! enough for now.

No Fear

No fear. No fear of anything. Absence of fear brings you peace. Whatever the fear, give to God and rest in the shalom of God. Breathe . . . and rest in peace. No fear. enough for now.

Did You Find Your Fear?


What is your fear? Did you recognize one?

Fear can trap you in its web; but it does not kill you. It does not kill you. Yes, you may be hurt, disappointed, but it does not kill you.

Fear of ________ . What is your fear? It is not about the __________, whatever it is.  It is about the fear. Now, the crazy part is that fear is False Expectations Appearing Real. It is not real. So we can move past that fear. We can combat it because it is not from God and has no place in our lives. "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (fear), but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline (sound mind)" 2 Tim. 1:7 NIV. Do you know how many believers could walk free just by walking in that revelation alone? You can walk free of fear. 

Let's get started. Wait on Holy Spirit to show you your fear. Oh you may have a few but let's get started. What is the first one? Write it down. What is it that you fear? How has this tripped you up over the years? What is the foundation? What cost have you paid because of this fear? Can you afford to keep paying? Then give it to God. Give God the feelings about the fear and the lost and how it has tripped you up. Take your time, you may need to lament or grieve. Don't rush this. When you have finished you will know because you will feel lighter. Then thank God for the release. Now renounce any level of demonization that has occurred because of that fear. Announce your holding on to the second Timothy passage- that you can walk free because God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. Now rest. enough for now.
