Thoughts for the day - 2/25/18

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10

So what are you afraid of? We all have fears, anxieties and apprehensions. But why, why let so much of yourself be consumed by what you cannot change or cannot know the outcome. Give these emotions up, they serve you not, for all that is truly important in your life, your Father will provide.

This does not mean there will not be hardships or losses, deep valleys or even great pain in you life. These storms will always come, they are a part of our journey here on earth, yet our Father stands at your side; always, to uphold you and strengthen you, that all these troubles shall pass and you will know His true glory and rest in His infinite peace.

Many Blessings.

Thank you for your encouraging words! Keep fighting the good fight!

Thank you for the encouragement also!

See you found the auto promote.

When God is with us, all else fades away. There is no pain, no struggle, no hardship...but on our human journey until we reach our place in Heaven, there will be challenges, but He is always there with us! He guides us through the harshest waters and leaves us wondering how we are so lucky to have such an incredible Father. With Him, we have it all!

Oh Man you said it "With Him, we have it all!"

Welcome this day, may you be so blessed by it.

You too my friend. God Bless!

The only fear we should have is fear of the Lord. That is where wisdom begins. Because we begin to understand our God is greater than all of our worries and anxieties and troubles combined. So fear you do not get separated from Him. Nothing else matters.

All sing praise to the Lord!
Bless be the Lord, Bless be the Lord
The God of mercy, The God who saves
I shall not fear the dark of night
Nor the arrow that flies by day.

Gems you are the man!
Blessings this very fine evening for you.

Thank you @bycoleman. And may the blessings you bestowed return to you fourfold.

Yes sir! It is ALL about perspectives! Our God has victory and it all depends on what we focus on!

“The remarkable thing about God is that when you fear God, you fear nothing else, whereas if you do not fear God, you fear everything else.” ― Oswald Chambers

God has not given us the spirit of fear, in him is our sustenance. You just have to trust him because he will never leave you or forsake you. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you.
He is with us always!

Have a joyous day!

Of a truth, our father is mercy and just, faithful in All his ways. He never disappoints. All what we have to do is trust and believe in his name and our worries are over.
Happy new week

My day starts with "Father this is your day, lead me in your will".

I am at peace in this, even when the day lets loose chaos.

Blessings this new week to you as well!

" But why, why let so much of yourself be consumed by what you cannot change or cannot know the outcome. ".... So true sir...
If our heavenly father can take very good care of sparrows that are worth of little value, then why should we be afraid when we are worth more than sparrows? For he promises to take care of us and we know for sure that "he that promise is faithful and true... For if God be for us, then nothing can be against us.

Yes, so much more than sparrows, we are made in His image!

Be blessed this day!

@bycoleman Yes, almighty always with us. Every second not even second it's more than a nanosecond. Thanks for your post.

Thank you have have a blessed day!

@bycoleman Thanks a lot.

Purely by accident.
I'm running out of voting power with all the great replies :)
Blessings!

@bycoleman Sorry, if I hurt you anyway. Please forgive me. You are so honest and your soul too. Please forgive me.

Be blessed, you have done nothing to offend.

@bycoleman this post reminds me of the song, No longer slaves, by Voices of Lee.

You should look it up.

Christ breaks every chain, and as children of God, we are no longer slaves to fear.

Hallelujah!

Fear is necessary part of the life, if we are not afraid of anything that will be dangerous.

Fear is not what keeps you from crossing the street without looking, but wisdom.

May you have more wisdom in your life each day!

yes, wisdom is also important but the wisdom is worthless if there is no fear and problems in the life.

For God has not given us the spirit of fear, He has given unto us a spirit power, of love and a sound mind. 2Tim 1:7

If we walk in the knowledge of the power we have as children of God, if we walk in love, and avoid whatever can tamper with our minds being clear, and so we have the clear mind to discern things, we will not need to be afraid to be successful or safe in life.

Fear is the devil's weapon. Fear is a result of the belief that whatever is before you can overcome you. If you remember who you have as God, you don't need to be afraid.

Now, if you meant to say that caution is necessary in life, I'd agree as the Bible says that a wise man sees trouble and hides himself but a fool stays on the path until destruction comes.

Fear is not of God, but caution, who it is necessary, is wisdom.

As always sister, you are right on!

Have a blessed day!

You too.

Fear and Pain is what makes life interesting!
