Fear builds fences keeping one out of God’s perfect plan. Faith in Christ Jesus brings us back into His peace and promises.
Fear snuck into my soul a few months ago. I made a mistake by clicking on a link in my text message allowing a hacker into my account. After scrubbing every source of my online presence, I concluded my blog. The decision felt safe from social media, but my soul experienced a foreign sadness. This grief lingered for the entire summer. It was in the midnight hour when I finally surrendered this decision to the Lord.
Searching the Word of God for direction, the confirmation to publish His Word resurrected this blog. Instantly, joy submerged my heart! All my justifications for ending this website were brought before the cross. The root cause was revealed as I confessed my disobedience: fear.
Faith in God’s Word led me back to His will. My dear friend, be aware of the faces fear presents. Behind its mask is the devil is diverting you from the Holy plan of the Father.
What decisions are you making that are developing with a mixture of fear?
Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked, preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings. Ps. 140:4
