Did you know that there is a "do not fear" Verse for each day of the year? Yes, the subject of fear and anxiety was mentioned 365 times in the bible. And then I wonder why God consistently tells us not to fear when it feels so much like an uncontrollable emotion.
Truly, we all have our own fears. I get nervously scared of change and new things. I had this bland fear late last year of how 2023 might look like for me. Sometimes I fear that God's will may not be what people expect of me. The list is endless.
But you know the best part?
Our God is so much aware of our emotions and so much interested. Don't forget that Jesus also wept.
Well, here's the point;
You, I, can't manage our emotions without first accepting that emotion. God wants us to admit our emotions that's why he consistently shows us that He cares. I began with fear, that's because it's the most common and the most likely hidden emotion.
I heard a girl last year confess that she wasn't in anyway nervous about a 'Song interview' and I was forced to say immediately that it was a lie.
Yes, we want to hide our emotions because they'll make us look weak and all...
Sometimes we even go to the extent of faking "I'm fine" to God when we pray. We tell God it's fine if it's your will yet we have fears that that will isn't coming.
Why don't we just go plain?
πΊππ, π¦ππ’ ππππππ π π‘πππ , π‘ππ π€πππ‘πππ ππ too ππππ πππ πΌ'π πππ‘π‘πππ π€ππππ¦ πππππ π ππππ ππ.
If you wanna manage your emotions and fight the war within, you need to admit that you feel the way you feel.
For peace sake, please do not judge yourself. Emotions are inevitable and in all,God knows what He created and He has a purpose for each trait. Instead, admit your feelings and take it to God.
Then you'll realise that your God also cares about how you feel.
So I was stuck in my fears late year that I realised I couldn't do the things I once loved to do. I wanted to confess that I was fine or that I'll be fine cause I trust God but I realized facing reality is what I needed. I had to take some day off "my daily stuffies" and focus on myself.
And in few days I was fine.
That is it. We all act rational sometimes to hide the problem, but too much of that wounds the spirit.
Accept that Emotion. Then, you'll find a solution.
About fear, I was led to this verse that instantly changed me.
Lamentations 3:57
You came near when I called you, and you said, “Do not fear.”
Lamentations 3:57 NIV
