Why fear and anxiety? | 2Tim 1:7

Paul’s words to Timothy are equally God’s words to us. He has given each one of us a spirit of “power, love and self-discipline”, or as in some translations, "a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7). Therefore, we never should respond to circumstances or people in fear, because we have the power of God living within us — the very power that dispels all fear and anxiety. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in the United States.  Today, I will share with you three key points for us to remember and learn. John tells us, “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear” (1 John 4:18).  Ask God to impart to you more of Christ’s love and to take away any torment you feel—be direct about it.  As you do, fear will lose its grip on you.  Join me today and know how to conquer the fears and anxieties in your life.
