Daily Devotion - October 11, 2011
“…You are my joy and Lord I’d like to say…”
We often become so focused on the cares of life – busyness, chaos, fear, gaining security through money and things, etc. – that we lose our joy. Let your mind ponder this thought today: what if you lost every possession and everything you hold dear? Would anything change about the Lord? Reality is that when all is said and done our only real security – the real foundation of our life – is found in knowing Jesus intimately. If we lose our job or face poor health He is still our Provider and the Healer and Sustainer of our lives. If our life or security is threatened He is still our future in eternity and Protector of our soul. It stands to reason that if we want to eradicate fear we need to walk in assurance that whether we live or die we are the Lord’s. He is faithful and He is constant – even when the cares of life let us down. Let us practice putting our hope in God today and begin to prioritize our lives according to that reality…and watch peace and joy re place fear and anxiety.
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.
1 John 4:18 NASB
