Fear of the Future
Day 95

"When you have an anxiety or fear, this is a feeling of concern about the future. Sometimes you may ask the question, what if …? And you answer it to yourself. Then you ask the question again, and the second time you answer it, you embellish the answer.

"You can actually create a genuine fear of the future by what goes on in your mind," says Dr. H. Norman Wright.

The Bible says that God is love. It also says that love cannot coexist with fear. So if Jesus lives in you, you do not need to fear. If you have accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior, then He dwells in you and in your mind.

"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love" (1 John 4:18).

Lord Jesus, I believe in You, and I want You to live in me. Forgive me of all my sins. Amen.
