Fearless Daughter

I am fearless because of the gift of Christ, who conquered sin and defeated death upon the cross. Deuteronomy 31:6 "Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you." I am a daughter because of Psalm 68:5 "Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation."

Thoughts of a Loved Someone

My God:
  • Okay with me doing my own thing
  • Rewards me with emotional highs 
  • Punishes me with emotional lows
  • Will only speak to me if I am walking perfectly in His way
  • Little desire for my discomfort 
  • Limited by people's opinions and reactions
  • Won't rescue me in times of trouble 
God of Universe:
  • Demands my obedience out of His unsurprising knowledge that His will is infinitely better than mine
  • Though God may use emotions to give me conviction, they are not his primary source of revelation, His WORD is
  • It is be grace I have been saved, through faith, therefore nothing I can do will earn me more favor, though with obedience comes a better understanding of who God is and His will for my life
  • Growth is essential in my walk with God, His will is that I am discontent with the amount that I know Him and content with how much of the world I breathe in on a daily basis 
  • Knows that discomfort brings vulnerability and total and complete reliance on Him
  • Is not bound by this world and will rescue me from the bondage and stronghold of people pleasing
  • For God so loved He GAVE: He will always come through for me when He is asking me to put myself in an uncomfortable position
