How do we overcome the “fear” that confronts us today?

FEAR has to do with torment. When we operate in panic mode day after day we are discouraged and loose HOPE. We criticize everything and everyone without reason.

When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.

Three things will last forever—Faith, Hope, and Love—and the greatest of these is His LOVE for us!

1Corinthians 13:11-13

.

Dear ones, how we express our LOVE of GOD is through our WORSHIP!

Worship is GOD centered.  Worship magnifies the LORD. Worship remembers that we are His People and He is the Lord our God – Creator of Heaven and earth and ALL that is in the earth, including you and I as His Children!  Since GOD is LOVE, we can read:

God suffers long with us, and God is kind; God does not envy; God does not parade Himself and boast about His accomplishments; God does not behave rudely; God does not seek His own way, but has given each one of us ‘free will’ to choose a way; God is not provoked; God thinks no evil events, circumstances and God cannot lie; God does not rejoice in iniquity; but God delights in the Truth.

God bears all things, God believes all things, God hopes all things, and God endures all things! 

The LORD our GOD NEVER FAILS!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus – Look full in His marvelous Face

And the things of this world will grow strangely dim, in the Light of His Glory and Grace!

Amen and Amen and Amen!
