Francis Chan sermon-FEARLESS
I DON'T NEED TO BE AFRAID OF ANYTHING.
ITS GOING TO BE OK.
"DON'T FEAR ANYTHING; EVEN HERE I WILL GIVE YOU JOY."
Do I really believe that I don't have to be afraid of the enemy: his lies, how he causes me to be anxious, how he makes me hide, believe things about myself that are not true that inturn make me act out of unbelief?? Do I really believe that even when I walk through these valleys of death...I CAN FEAR NOTHING!!...Then he reminds me that he is here with me. In me. All over me. Watching over me. Walking with me. RUNNING WITH ME. Until the very end he is WITH US.
Megan- NOW. Please. Eat in peace. No anxiety because I am with you. Just don't worry or fear anything. I am in control. Just put it in my hands. I will show you in the roughest parts of life. Not just now as you are sitting in your room typing about how I am with you. It gives me JOY to show you little child. Chickie Megs do you trust me?
"NOTHING YOU DO IN YOUR LIFE MATTERS EXCEPT FOR WHAT YOU DO FOR CHRIST."
WORRIES. SPENDING. HOBBIES.TALKING. WORKING. SLEEPING.DECISIONS.
ASK:Is this what God would want me to do with my passions, resources, and time? A constant examination to see what REALLY matters.
YOU WILL REAP THAT HARVERST WHEN YOU DO NOT GIVE UP!!!
The one examination I make today is the 100 mile run I am running next week. WHY? Why am I running it- For the simple purpose that to give my best, concur the hard parts of the race with childlike trust. Joy in the rough parts. Attitude with others. Showing love for the race. Thats what brings God joy. When we just simply choose to glorify God in our bodies. IT BRINGS HIM PLEASURE WHEN WE GIVE OUR BEST. Can I picture God saying, Megan it brings me joy to watch you run. Because when you run, you are alive!
