"GOD IS WITH YOU"



In a museum, a little mouse crossed a light projecting his shade
on the wall, scaring him to death.
Grandpa, grandpa, he said, but had no answer.
He started backing off and the size of the “dragon” that scared
him was getting bigger, then, he stopped and said:
If I have to die, I will die fighting, and started to walk forward.
As he was getting closer to the wall, the “monster” was getting
smaller and smaller, until it got his size; then he closed his
fists and started to throw some punches to the wall, when a ray
of light entering through the window announcing the new day,
erased the shade, and the little mouse said:
Coward, where did you go? I’m not afraid of you anymore!
Then, grandpa showed up and said: What is all that noise?
Grandpa, I was fighting with a big dragon, and I won!
Oh yea? I fought with that dragon also, and I won too, but,
forget about dragons, I saw a lot of cheese in the kitchen, lets
have breakfast together! Look son:
I want to confess you something: I was behind the light!
I wanted to help you in case you needed me!
Son: Fear is a test to increase our Power, our Love and our
Temperance (Self- control)
That means that you.. grandpa?.. Thank you! I love you!
As we back up, fear increases, when we confront it, disappears.
All, absolutely all of us sometime had been afraid of something!
Fear is a negative staff we could neutralize with something
positive! Sometimes fear makes us to get closer to God!
When we ask Him to be with us, we have his protection from
something that could hurt us. God controls everything,
and nothing bad could happen to us without his consent;
He is in control, we don’t have to fear anything!
My grandpa use to tell me: Son, fear does not exist!
It is just an unreal doubt product of our mind or from somebody
else to exhaust our energy and to steal our courage!
Happiness is to avoid fear, and to abandon all negativities!
Well, tell me: Fear exists or not?
Listen: Jesus told his Apostles: “Why are ye fearful, o, ye of
little faith?” Mathew 8 -26.
In other words: More faith, less fear! So, Get closer to God!

Be happy! Have a pleasant dream…With God within!
PRAISE HIM HE LOVES YOU!

"FEAR"


What is fear?
Fear is an unknown road we are traveling against our will!
Fear is a yellow light that advices us that we must stop;
wait until bad traffic clears and then, all rested out when
the green light shows up…continue!
Fear is normal!
They call it stress, anxiety, depression etc. but it’s just fear
in a disguise running through a red light! Watch out!
Stop! Stop! Stop! And relax!
Can we control it?
Yes we can! Listen:
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power,
and of love, and of a sound mind” (self control)
II Timothy 1-7
Fear is not to hurt us, but to protect us from something
bad it could come if we desire to continue riding toward
the red light with our eyes closed!
Someone said:
“If we fear the Lord, we won’t fear anything else”
Fear and faith cannot get together, they are like water
and oil, and water and oil don’t mix.
They are separated! We should keep them separated!
If we don’t use fear for protection, it could deviate in
stress and anxiety and paralyze us! Listen:
If a dear hears the roar of a lion, utilizes its fear to fight
or flight as fast as it can, but if it gets stressed or anxious,
paralyzes and remains at the mercy of its predators.!
Jesus told his disciples:
“Why are ye fearful, O ye, of little faith?” Mathew 8-26.
Fear is doubt! Faith is Trust!
Trust the Lord and all your doubts will disappear!
Where is fear? Where did it go?
I don’t know!
It’s probably following somebody else, because I…
I’m following the Lord!

PRAISE HIM… HE LOVES YOU!
