Scared

Have you ever gotten that scared feeling in the pit of your stomach? I mean that really scared sinking feeling that makes you feel scared in a way that you've never felt before. That use to be a regular feeling for me. I can remember when I was little and my whole world revolved around being scared (as much a child's can understand fear). I use to be to scared to go to sleep some nights.

That's how my life use to be... in one word: scared.

Now my life is described by a new word: peace.

And I'm so glad it is! Jesus has secured my future and not allowed that feeling of fear in my life anymore. Now, I still have moments when I take my eyes off of Jesus and feel scared about trivial things, but that pit in my stomach fear is no more!

There is nothing that I fear anymore. The enemy has no hold over me. My future is secure!! What else matters?

"I have said these things to you, that in my you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world." John 16:33
