What is Fear? Dave Ramsey says it is:
False Evidence Appearing RealI loved this definition, because it is so true. Isn't it true that so many of the things we fear never actually come to pass? Satan has tried so hard to throw fear our way recently, but God has been SO faithful in His provisions and protection.
*For the past few weeks we have been having plumbing issues and the fear of what this is going to involve has been a struggle and a financial concern. Yesterday we were blessed by a wonderful plumber that is a Godly man and has been a huge help to us. Thank you, Joe! Please pray as we are still dealing with this issue and it is a very real struggle!
*Last week we feared what injuries Brandon had received in the wreck and God protected him.
* Just last night the home behind ours burned to the ground. As the fire got closer I feared the fire might come the way of our home. God's hand of protection was with us and we pray He will provide for the family who lost their home.
*We often fear how we will pay for this adoption, but we know that "if God leads us to it, He will see us through it!"

Here's what our Heavenly Father says about fear:
For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15 (New King James Version)
Our wonderful pastor reminded us tonight that Psalm 46:2 says, "Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea."
Isn't it amazing how God speaks to us when He knows what is going through our mind?
I would love to hear from you, my bloggy friends, on how God has provided for your needs during a time of fear. I cherish your comments!
