God Can Do So Much More

God Can Do So Much More

It’s easy to trust in yourself. It’s hard to trust in God. So, how is that whole “trusting in yourself” thing working for you? When you trust in yourself, you will struggle with fear, anxiety, and worry because every battle is dependent on you—your strength, your wisdom, your resources (which, if you’re anything like me, are always limited). Why not trust the One who can do so much more? God can do so much more.

Jesus Comes First

Jesus Comes First

You were never meant to be ruled by fear, anxiety, or worry. This is not how you were created to live. And yet, that’s the world we live in, right? So what do we do? The first thing God told Gideon to do to overcome his fear—before God gave him any leadership tasks, before anything else—was to tear down the idols in his life. God is jealous. As our Creator, he deserves all of our worship. But as our loving Father, he doesn’t want any harm to come to his children. And worshiping/serving anything other than God is self-destructive and harmful. What’s the first step in overcoming fear? Jesus comes first.

God Is For Us

God Is For Us

For many people, God is mostly unknown. They don’t have a personal relationship with him so their hearts and actions are spurred by fear of what God might demand of them or do to them—especially if they mess up! But God is patient and kind. God repeatedly responds to people’s fear with words of comfort (“Peace!”), command (“Do not be afraid.”), and promise (“You are not going to die.”). Despite our many fears, in Christ, God is for us. And this brings both a relationship with God and peace in his name.
