No Fear
There is a brand of American clothing introduced in the late 80’s called “No Fear” It came out of the motor cross scene but became quite iconic with a youthful culture here in the USA. I was never into the slogan much, but as a believer I do like it in some ways. I was reminded why I like this slogan this morning as I read this Psalm from the sons of Korah. Check this out….
1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, 3 though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. (Psalm 46:1-3 NIV)
The reason I can be brave is because of the Presence of God. He is my Source of Strength, but He is also here with me – present and accounted for. I will hold onto Him in the most troubling of times as well as the most fulfilling victorious times. I don’t ever want to forget what a difference His Presence in me makes. His Presence is me is the biggest game-changer of my entire life and my existence here on earth. He desires to fill my life with peace and joy for the journey – no matter what circumstances I face or find myself in the middle of. I don’t want my situation to every change my perspective of God. With Him I have NO FEAR!
Pressing On! Dwayne
