Perfect Love

"Lord, give us that perfect love of you that casts away all fear."

Never let yourselves fear anybody or anything.
No fear of His failing you.
No fear that your faith will fail you.
No fear of poverty or lonliness.
No fear of not knowing the way.
No fear of others.
No fear of their misunderstanding.

This absoute casting out of fear is the result of a perfect love, a perfect love of Him and the Father. Speak to him about everything. Listen to Him at all tmies. Feel His tender nearness, substituting at once some thought of Him for the fear.

Discouragement, depression, all those bad issues in your life are around you and surrpise you in the form of a fear.

The fear may have been but a small one, but if it gets in, then in comes rushing despondency, doubt of Him, and so much other crap!

pray for that perfect love of Him that does indeed take away all your fears.
