There is this amazing song called “No Longer Slaves” by Bethel and it really touched my heart as I was thinking of what I wanted to write for this blog post. In the lyrics it states, “I’m no longer a slave to fear. I am a child of God” and that really hit me.
In this crazy time of preparing for the race thus far I have hit patches of complete fear. Fear of not being adequate enough, fear of not being funded, fear of letting people down, fear of defeat and fear of so many other things. This path I have chosen to embark on is scary and it is way bigger than I could ever handle on my own. I can’t do this by myself. It’s too hard and it’s too challenging… for me. That’s the thing. For me it is too hard but for God it’s nothing.
$14,951 is nothing compared to how big God is and he will equip me. He will make me adequate and he won’t let me fall. God won’t let Satan win this battle inside me. God has a plan and since I am a child of God I am no longer a slave to fear. I don’t have to be afraid and I don’t have to worry. God has this all under control. He truly has a plan. Satan tries so hard to find our weaknesses and pull us down but as long as we stay steadfast on Gods power and love, God will prevail.
God is bigger than every mountain, valley, storm, earthquake, galaxy and troubles. He is the God of the universe… so why would he let me fall? I am his child! What is there to fear? My Heavenly Father has created everything and has a plan for me! Why am I worrying?
Its so hard to stay in this mindset when it seems like your world is falling apart but even in the lowest of lows there is a lesson to be learned and God is still there. God will never leave you and that is something God has been teaching me lately. Since I am his child there is no reason to fear. I am free to fully love God without worrying about the consequences, I am free to pursue this gap year knowing God will support me, and I am free to be loved by God.
We are free of our chains riddled with fear, we are children of God!
