Corinthians 4:17 (NIV). For our light and momentary troubles are
achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix
our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen
is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal..... .. Thoughts on This
Verse... Life can be very tough. Eventually, our bodies are going to
die. In the process of living, we're going to face some very difficult
circumstances and going to experience some awful pain. But, as bad as
life's hard realities can be, we are headed for an eternal glory beyond
our imagining. Life's difficulties simply can't compare to this glory
that awaits us. Our pain is temporary. The things that cause our pain
are temporary. The treatments, the prescriptions, the therapies, the
surgeries, the setbacks are all temporary. All these things that we have
seen and experienced are passing. But our eternal glory, our
indescribable bliss, that wonderful future that we cannot yet see, is
eternal ... forever ... incorruptible ... and reserved for us, God's
precious children!



FEAR CAN BE A KILLING I STRUGGLE WITH IT MOST ALL MY LIFE
DEPRESSION , PANIC ATTACKS AND MORE THAT THIS LIFE CAN BRING TO US
I THINK NOW IN MY WALK IN LIFE IF I GET ANGRY OR FRUSTRATED ABOUT SOMETHING I JUST TURN A DIFFRENT DIRECTION AND NOT LET IT BOTHER ME
EVERYONE HAS THERE WAYS ABOUT THEM AND I RESPECT THAT BUT AS FOR ME TRYING TO MAKE IT IN THIS WORLD WAS VERY HARD THERE WAS TIMES I DID NOT WANT TO GET OUT OF BED IN THE PASSED WITH THE LORD I CAN FACE TOMORROW

Challenging Fear

"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because

fear has to do with punishment. The man who fears is not made perfect in love" - (1 John 4:18, NIV).

Most of us struggle with fear of one sort or another at one time or

another—some mild, some serious, some healthy, some unhealthy and self-defeating.

Healthy fear is a self-protective mechanism. We rightly fear (or

should) driving through a red light, or doing anything that could

hurt us or others. Unhealthy fear is that which is caused bysomeone

who hurt us deeply, and especially when we bury and deny it. This

fear can become a floating anxiety and cause us to be fearful of

everyday living, separate us from close relationships and cause

loneliness, give us ulcers or other physical ills, or cause us to

hide it and "protect" ourselves with anger.

Fears that are relatively harmless can often be overcome by doing the thing we fear and thereby reconditioning our response to the

particular thing we fear.

Unhealthy or self-defeating fears need to be dealt with at their root

cause. For example, a person who was abused or abandoned as a child may be fearful of being treated the same way as an adult. And, for some strange reason, unless he faces and resolves this fear, he will tend to either withdraw from close relationships or be attracted to people who will repeat the abuse or abandonment he experienced in the past. Sadly, the things we fail to resolve we are destined to repeat.

As today's Scripture points out, "The man [person] who fears is not

made perfect in love." Thus, to be made perfect in love means we need to resolve any unhealthy fears. To do this these fears need to be recognized and if repressed, they need to be brought into the

conscious mind so they can be confronted and resolved.

Look at the symptoms in your life. Do you avoid close relationships?

Is your life filled with anxiety? Are you an angry person? Do you

have any impaired close relationships? Is your marriage a wreck? If

any of these apply to you, chances are you may have unresolved fear.

So when you pray admit these and any other symptoms to God and ask him to give you the courage to see the root cause of these—and to lead you to the help you need to overcome these. If the fears are

buried, you may need qualified professional counseling help to

overcome these.

As we resolve unhealthy fears, we open ourselves to love, and the

more we are filled with God's love, the less fearful we will be

because perfect love drives out fear.

Prayer: "Our Everlasting Eternal Father, please help me to face the

root cause of any or all fear/s I may have and lead me to the help I

need to overcome them so I can be freed to know and experience your love which is the ultimate protection against fear. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, In Jesus loving Name I Pray, Amen."

God Bless you all.

Psalm 121:1-2 (NIV). I lift up my eyes to the hills -- where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth....... Thoughts on This Verse... Since God could speak into existence the universe, and since God knows our names and the number of the hairs on our head ... surely we know that we can go to him for our help. Let's lift up our eyes and our hearts to El Shaddai, Lord God of the Mountains, and know the Almighty sees our needs, hears our requests, and cares about our hearts


Well the past is playing with my head
And failure knocks me down again
I'm reminded of the wrong
That I have said and done
And that devil just wont let me forget



In this life
I know what I've been
But here in your arms
I know what I am

I'm forgiven
I'm forgiven
And I don't have to carry
The weight of who I've been
Cause I'm forgiven

My mistakes are running through my mind
And I'll relive my days, in the middle of the night
When I struggle with my pain, wrestle with my pride
Sometimes I feel alone, and I cry

In this life
I know what I've been
But here in your arms
I know what I am

When I don't fit in and I don't feel like I belong anywhere When I don't measure up to much in this life
Oh, I'm a treasure in the arms of Christ
