“Fear doesn’t write your ending—God’s love does.”
Romans 8:38–39 — “Nothing… will be able to separate us from the love of God.”
Opening Reflection: Love Shouts
Fear is loud. It echoes in our minds, narrates worst-case scenarios, and tries to convince us that the story is over. It can prevent us from moving forward, binding us in a cocoon of doubt and anxiety. But Scripture reminds us: love gets the last word. God’s love is unshakable, unbreakable, and unending. It is a beacon of hope that pierces through the darkest moments. Anxiety, grief, or uncertainty can’t silence God’s love. It speaks louder.
Love holds firmer, wrapping us in its embrace when we feel most vulnerable. It stays longer, lingering in our hearts and souls, providing comfort in our most trying times. When fear tries to write your ending, God’s love steps in with a better script. He writes about redemption, restoration, and hope. God’s love rewrites our narratives to reflect His grace. Your fear does not define you. You are held by love, a love that transforms and uplifts. And love always finishes what it starts, guiding us toward a future filled with promise and peace.
Real-Life Example:
You’re grieving a loss, and fear whispers, “You’ll never feel whole again.” It tells you healing is impossible. But God’s love holds you through the ache. It reminds you: this isn’t the end. You begin to see flickers of hope, moments of comfort, signs of life returning. Not because fear disappeared overnight, but because love stayed.
As you continue on your journey of healing and finding solace in God’s love, remember that fear may linger in the shadows, but it doesn’t have the power to dictate your future. It is God’s that will guide you towards wholeness. Embrace the flickers of hope and moments of comfort as reminders that love always triumphs over the darkness of fear. With each passing day, you’ll discover that it is love that has the final word, not fear.

“As we witness the evil and pain in this world, we too cry out Abba! Abba! God does not give us an explanation. He gives us himself. Jesus is God’s answer to our cry.” Read this morning from Crosswalk.com.(There was much more but these few sentences are what got to me.) I liked this brief… Read more
Easter bunnies, and Jesus
I’ll bet you think I’m one of those ultra conservative religious types who is going to say that there is no way Easter bunnies and Jesus can co-exist this Easter season. Nope. I’m not going to say that. You see I’m one of those people who believe that “things” are not evil in themselves. Nothing inanimate can… Read more
from my prayer chair
We are all believers. We all believe something. Everybody puts their faith in something or someone. Everybody has a set of beliefs by which they run their lives, even if they don’t know it. It shapes every decision and every action. As a Christian I believe that what Jesus taught is the right way… Read more
Pray like an archer
Andrew Murray in his wonderful book, With Christ In the School of Prayer, devotes a chapter to the importance of praying specifically. I wholeheartedly agree. Jesus Himself was very direct (specific) with people. Most people choose to ignore this part of His personality. They prefer to focus on the love and forgiveness part and ignore… Read more
Handicapped parking and jerks
I’m sorry. I don’t usually call people jerks but in this case, it applies. Even though I’m a Christian, I’m calling them jerks. I’m talking about people who take handicap parking spaces when they are clearly not handicapped. We’ve all see those cars taking up spaces with no sticker on the mirror and no handicap… Read more
