"for I was afraid of you, because you are a demanding person; you take up what you did not lay down and you harvest what you did not plant.' He said to him, 'With your own words I shall condemn you, you wicked servant. You knew I was a demanding person" Luke 19:21-22b
Do you see the role fear plays in our lives, it will bring us death if we allow it to conquer us. There is a difference between head knowledge and heart knowledge. Fear is head knowledge for you are already predicting the outcome, heart knowledge is trusting in God for the outcome even though you maybe fearful. Heart knowledge makes us act, head knowledge stymies our growth. We will give an accounting of our life. God is demanding, but gives us free will to choose our path. Where will we speak from, our head or our heart? Where love of God resides, fear has no foothold.
Dear Father, we will move in small deliberate steps, accomplishing the tasks You lay in front of us. May I always be obedient to Your will, help me ignore those moments of fear and doubt. It is You I seek to please and no other, through this life You are leading us Home. Bless this day Lord, protect all who are traveling this thanksgiving. Help us speak often and fondly of You, May we use Your gifts to proclaim the Kingdom. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Mother of Love, pray for us.
