Freedom from Fear

12-29-06

You have filled my heart with greater joy.
Psalm 4:7-8

From the heart (the very center of the Spirit) springs emotions, thoughts, motivations, courage, and action. It is "the wellspring of life" (Proverbs 4:23). God provides peaceful rest for these who are anxious in spirit, safety for those in harms way.

From my joy I choose to laugh, love, learn; live. I choose to accept this gift of joy that God promises me. He promises peace without anxiety. He can and does bless with gifts of rest. I am no longer anxious or afraid (Psalm 27:1).

Lord, use me in my insecurities and weaknesses. Help me to become strong through them and lift others up. Lord, be glorified in my every action. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
