Where God’s love is, there is no fear, because God’s perfect love drives out fear.

1 John 4:18

 

A lot of us live with a hidden fear that God is angry at us. Somewhere, sometime, some Sunday school class or some television show convinced us that God has a whip behind his back, a paddle in his back pocket, and he’s going to nail us when we’ve gone too far.

No concept could be more wrong! Our Savior’s Father is very fond of us and only wants to share his love with us.

We have a Father who is filled with compassion, a feeling Father who hurts when his children hurt. We serve a God who says that even when we’re under pressure and feel like nothing is going to go right, he is waiting for us, to embrace us whether we succeed or fail.

He doesn’t come quarreling and wrangling and forcing his way into anyone’s heart. He comes into our hearts like a gentle lamb, not a roaring lion.

   Chad – I can relate to this today. This morning, I was praying for safe travel for my daughter and granddaughters, then proceeded to imagine the worst as they were driving in the rain. God quickly reminded me I had placed them in His care, and stop taking back control and living in fear. God’s perfect love took care of my fear.
