She Is Fearless!

Okay, so not everyone, IF anyone, is fearless. But about a month or so ago, I got a pop socket. Yes, I’m one of those people. Sometimes, anyway. I didn’t have one for awhile, but then I saw one that I really liked. One that would remind me of something every day that I saw it. There’s a Bible reference on it also. It is Proverbs 31:25, which states “Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.” The little statement that is on my pop socket is “She is Fearless”.

When we have God on our side, we CAN be fearless. Because He has everything under control. It may be hard to feel fearless, but it is possible. God is always there for us. I’ve been struggling a lot lately, spiritually. I just keep having one thing after another, and it just feels like everything is piling up on top of one another. And it feels like it keeps getting higher and harder, and it isn’t getting easier. But I know that if I put my FULL trust in God, He will be there, He is there. We can’t just give Him half of our heart, He needs and wants the WHOLE heart.

So many times, we will give Him one thing but not another. We say “Oh, I’m going to hold on to this just a little bit longer then I’ll give it to you. But I just can’t right now, God.” We know we CAN trust Him, but for some reason, we don’t. Why is that, do you think? Any thoughts on that? Or think about why you think you can’t or don’t trust Him with some of the things in your life. He already knows about them, so why not actually talk TO Him and tell Him about it.

But…that’s not how it works. When you give something up, it shouldn’t be a sacrifice. When we give things up, in the right way, as in when we give them to God, it is NEVER a sacrifice. Because who knows, what God is really holding onto for us. He’s just waiting for you to be ready. But we can’t be “almost ready” for long. God doesn’t want to hurt us. He wants to be there for us, through everything – the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. 🙂

This past year has been a year of ups and downs. Everyone has ups and downs, I know. We are all going through something. Everyone is secretly crying out for help, like I said in my last blog post. Someone may just need a hug, I know it’s weird to offer a random stranger a hug, but sometimes, when you see someone that just looks really down and sad, try offering them a hug. It could and probably will make their whole day so much brighter. Or give them a friendly smile, if you don’t want to offer a random stranger a hug.

Think of it this way. if you will.

If you were at, what you thought was, your lowest point in life, you didn’t know what to do anymore, and you were just sitting somewhere or even just walking somewhere…would you say ‘no’ to a someone offering to give you a hug? Obviously, depending on if they looked okay, and not like a thief or pickpocket or something like that, but you could tell they were genuinely genuine. Would you say No?

I don’t know about you, but I would probably take the hug. It’s been a long couple of months. But that doesn’t mean I am giving up. I look at my pop socket, and it reminds me that God is with me, and that I CAN be fearless. Because I have God on my side. No matter what happens, He is there. This is just a reminder for those who may be struggling with similar things, or just that God is STILL there. He is ALWAYS there! If you need someone to talk to, after praying and talking to God, I am here. I love talking to people, and listening to them and just being there for them. I’d love to be there for you.

This was just a piece of my heart today, as I was thinking and just reminiscing on some things in life. Hope this brought encouragement to someone! Have a great weekend!
