Afraid: 5 Minute Friday

February 1, 2013 by Traci

I use to be afraid of so much.

Like I had control over my life.

Circumstances dictated my responses.

Fear of letting people down imprisoned me.

Afraid to let my guard down and be real plagued me.

Being the picture perfect Mommy haunted me.

The unknown terrified me.

I was a slave to perfectionism and control.

I have even been guilty of defining my Christianity by a set of rules and checklists.

My Savior, Jesus, gave me freedom over fear.

I can now walk, hand in hand with Him.

I’ve found safety in my Savior’s gentle touch.

I’ve let go of the death-grip called fear.

My confidence is in Him.

I wish I could shout from the rooftops, the freedom found in Christ!

To the unsaved, and saved alike.

So many believers, who love Jesus, are still walking with chain-ridden hearts.

Let Him cut the chains today.

Walk in total freedom today?

2 Timothy 1:7 “ For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
