How are you doing? This virus thing is lingering and the news of it can be (wants to be!) all-consuming! That fear thing will consume you! It will knot you up. It can freeze you into inactivity. It can depress you with isolation. But how are you doing with Jesus? He wants to be all-consuming. He will consume/devour your fear. He wants to release and liberate you. He wants you to know joy inexpressible and full of glory! Consider I John 4:18 – “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.” God’s love for you is perfect and He want you secure in the comfort of that perfection of love – His Son, our Savior, Jesus! Spend some extra time with the “good news” of the Gospel! Turn off the bad news that cultivate fear and ingest and digest the Truth and truths of God’s Word (through reading the Bible and/or through all those media/technology access venues!)! Peace and love – not fear and anxiety – in Jesus + Pastor Paul
