Perfect love casts out fear

Hello all,

1John 4:18: There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

Amen to that!

This is a massive thing God has taught me in my time out here. So often we may fear, it may be small things like other's opinion of us which can turn to constantly seeking approval. We may worry how are we performing in our jobs, how we are coming across to others, the reprocassions if we make a mistake. We can fear stepping out and being bold for Jesus, but if we believe the word, we have nothing to fear. I've seen in my time here that by trusting God there is love, security and He alone will catch me when I fall. If we trust God then we shouldn't fear, for He holds all things in the palm of His hands and He loves us.

The only way you can know perfect love is through God, others will let you down as much as they try, only God will never leave, forsake you and will love you unconditional, no matter how you behaviour or feel.

Much love to you all XxX
