If any of you know me, you know I am a worrier. I might mask it well for others, but fear is something I have always fought with. If you can come up with a worst case scenario chances are I have already thought of it, battled with it, and forced it aside.
World wide pandemic hits and I found myself yet again battling with what fuels that fire of fear. I used to find myself in the silent moments of the day and night sucked in a vortex of all the negatives from this pandemic mindlessly scrolling on social media, just thinking and reading about the worst. Nothing good comes from boredom. I’ve always been told idle hands are the devils workshop. But after going to war, after speaking with those who uplift and encourage me, after many late nights of reading and prayer. I am choosing to stay busy in those quiet moments. I am choosing to seek out God. I am choosing to be fearless. I am choosing to be faithful.
Be reminded with me that God truly is our fortress and our refuge.
John 14:27 - Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.
