Hold On To Truth

Recently  I wrote in my journal about how overwhelmed I felt.
In our situation, one of grinding immense, ongoing, devastating suffering, every extra stress is an intolerable burden.
I feared I may not be able to cope.
Fear is a terrible thing.
It incapacitates you.
Fear can overwhelm and completely invade your life causing misery, it makes everything feel out of balance and exaggerated.
It is at these times, I find, that wrong decisions are made, quickly and not necessarily sensibly.
We are all vulnerable when fear has clutched hold of us , when it twists our view so that all we can feel and see is through fear’s perception.
It is so important to hold on to truth when fear comes knocking. It is important to remember who you are. It is important to remain confident in your self and seek for wisdom in any decisions or actions you need to take.
Cling on to God and hold fast. Banish all fear in Jesus name. For He is powerful, He will return things to right balance and flow. He can help you see clearly and truly and the Spirit can help guide you wisely.
Seek truth at such times. Hold on to what you know to be true. Keep close to love and let that love fill you. Remember God’s promise and find hope in it. For he says ‘ I am with you’. Avoid reacting from fear.
Instead respond in the Power and strength of the love which He brings. Be confident in the Lord, for fear is not of love.
Never be a victim has always been Linda’s motto, I am learning how essential that is. A week later it is amazing how much has been sorted out; the key is taking your power back.
We banish all fear in Jesus Christ’s name.
We live in hope and place our trust in Him.
Amen
