This may be a great gettin' up morning...on the other hand, it may be another Oh No, Mr. Bill.
I'm feeling all sixes and sevens, with the all-but-touchable fear of losing my mind riding me. Ah, here comes God to comfort me...nothing turns me to God faster than fear.
This feels exactly like my experience nearly 50 years ago when I sat on my bed and wept, pea green-purple petrified that I was losing my mind.
I say again what I said then, Lord, if I need to lose my mind, then take it...do with it as You will, use it or don't, Your choice.
The difference between then and now...now I have earned faith. Fear doesn't differentiate...it likes having a cause but to thrive it needs only our lack of faith. I have faith and earned faith kicks fear's butt every time.
The God of my faith comforts me when I feel fear...I know God is here, and I am graced.
Fear is not eliminated, but God again is shown to be greater than fear...proving the saying, feel the fear and do it anyway.
This has just turned into my great gettin' up morning!
Thank you.
