The List

 

Whew! HELLLOOOO Friday! Hope your week was packed with fun. Here’s this week’s LIST.

 

I thought I’d get a bit serious this week and list out things that I fear…

Here’s my LIST:

~Fear of Heights: I didn’t develop this fear till about age 25. Not sure why. Seeing those pick of the walk outs at the Grand Canyon gives me the heebie jeebies.

~Fear of Snakes: enough said?

~Fear of the Scale: If you’ve read Stress Point you know that I have body image issues. I work on it daily and redirect my focus to my King. I still will NOT step on a scale. If I MUST do it, at the doctor’s office, etc., I turn around, close my eyes and make the nurse swear to me that she won’t write down the number where I can see it. Yes…I need Jesus every single day to quell this fear.

~Fear of weird cotton rubbing together: Yes, this sounds so strange. I can’t stand pulling cotton balls apart. Gives me the willies!

 

Ok…so take some time to list out your fears. Let’s chat!

 

Here’s some encouragement straight from the Bible to chew on regarding fear:

1 Timothy 1:7 “for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.”

Psalm 118: 5-7  “Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free. The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?  The Lord is on my side as my helper; I shall look in triumph on those who hate me.”

Isaiah 26:3-4 “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you,because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever,for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.”
