Don't be afraid! Elisha told him. "For there are more on our side than on theirs!" then Elisha prayed, "O LORD, open his eyes and let him see!" The LORD opened the young man's eyes, and when he looked up, he saw that the hillside around Elisha was filled with horses and chariots of fire.
There is more than we can see....trusting God is essential to our inner peace. Jermiah 29:11 'For I know the plans I have for you' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.'
Knowing and believing all this, why do we experience fear? I suppose the flesh speaks out. Yet, the lesson I seem to be learning...let my faith outweigh my fear....let faith win!

Nancy,
Well, I clicked on Lutiemom and found you and read your blog for the first time. I like how you started: Don't be afraid! The verse I wrote down in my journal this morning was Mark 5: 36 ~ Jesus said, "Do not be afraid; only believe.
I thank you for praying for me and my son from Wendy's blog. How special Jesus is to bring friends into my life to pray for us. My son is coming home today and will have to be on outpatient care. I'm praying for him to truly "come home" to our Lord. I pray as Elisha prayed, "O LORD open his eyes and let him see!" Every single word you shared is so speaking to me.
Thank you once again and congratulations on your beautiful grandbaby.
Blessings,
Deborah
