Romans 8:31
What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
I want to point out that I realize my mind probably works a little differently than yours. I know I deal with mental illness and honestly have no idea how a “normal” brain functions. However, I am sure you all still have periods of fear, anxiety, and panic. Our first responses may all be different but I do know one response we can all use. Look Satan straight in the face of that fear and say, “What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31).
The emotion of fear around you is very real. The trigger is real. However, we do not have to live in the fear. We do not have to let the fear control the situation or us. We have a safety net we can grab On to, God. In the middle of the storm, we can yell, “Wait!” We can take a breath. We can even pull the old childish statement, “My Daddy is bigger than your daddy.”
Yes, we will still face down that object of our fear. We will not do it alone. We have God standing before us and surrounding us. We can honestly say, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”
I know fear is a natural part of life. I also know that with You, God, I can stare that fear right in the face and know it has no chance against me. ~amen.
