"Perfect love casts out fear.” 1 John 4:18
Jesus is the definition of perfect love. It is Jesus who casts out the fear that cripples us. It is Jesus that clears away any obstacles that hinder us from being bold in the service of our King. So, then, where is that confidence, in us, that should be apparent in the presence of such freedom?
I dare say, we have not accepted that freedom as ours so we shrink from acting upon it. How can we expect to receive power from on high while we cower in the corner hoping not to be noticed? Are we waiting for some cataclysmic event to rouse us out of complacency?
I’m asking myself, is it time to step out and fearlessly proclaim, “Jesus is coming, are you ready?” Are you?
