How to Deal With Fear and Anxiety Part 2- Focus on Powerful Truth
I learned how to do life with fear alongside.Not leading the way, not overtaking me… but fear in its’ proper place- as a tool to give information, and as an emotion to acknowledge. In caregiving for my child with a life-threatening diagnosis, I clung to the powerful truth found in 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” I prayed it. I told God I didn’t want the spirit of fear and asked Him to help me have His power, His love, His sound mind. It wasn’t a one and done conversation. It was…

Spiritual Battle- No Weapon Will Prosper.
Spiritual battle is real. Over this last week our family has been hit with spiritual battles— multiple ones. It is not new for us to be hit with spiritual attacks.

Nothing Can Separate You From God’s Love. You Are Not Alone!
If you have been around the Bible for some time, you likely know that the Holy Spirit intercedes on your behalf and on my behalf. Romans 8:26 says “…the Spirit helps us in our weakness, We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.” So— when we pray and don’t know even what to ask for, maybe due to the request being heavy or complicated or we are in anguish or feel in despair and, or maybe have given up some on our hope that the situation will change… If you don’t know how to put…
