anxious or fearful in
their circumstances, etc. The tragedy is many try to execute God's love
but are not receiving His love in full, resulting in a perpetual cycle of
frustration and anxiety. For us to live as God expects us to-we must
receive His love as He instructs us. Here's a visual...you give your
child a hug but they're like a limp wet noodle and don't accept what
you're offering. You hugged-but they didn't receive or accept what you
provided. That's what God's love looks like when do not receive it. He's
waiting to give but we're not actively receiving...We must with a
purpose accept what He provides by reading what He says in the bible,
speaking and agreeing with His promises, and spending time with
Him...everyday and being cognizant of Him throughout the day. God does
not want us to be afraid-He's equipped us to execute what He calls us to
do...There's no fear in love, dread does not exist, perfect love turns
fear out and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the
thought of punishment, and so he who is afraid has not reached the full
maturity of love is not yet grown into love's complete perfection (1
John4:18). God is love-purpose to know Him and you will know your
purpose. Carrying out what He's called you to do-living the life He's
planned for you with His confidence in you. Let your light shine
friend...
(Matt 5:16). 8/21/12-LMM
