Reflecting on the famous saying of a past President, my version goes like this: “The only thing we have to fear is…unbelief.” If we are truly embracing what our minds know to be true, the truth that the maker of the universe is also a holy God that deeply loves us as individuals, then we truly have Nothing to fear. However, when we let our accuser fill our minds with doubt, it leads to unbelief. I think a lot of believers are reluctant to admit struggling with unbelief, but for me it’s a real battle sometimes. We should be careful and fearful of allowing such doubts to take hold in our lives. When unbelief takes root, it leads to idolatry, which always leads to immorality, and before you know it, you’ve gone places you never thought you’d go; places you never wanted to end up. I know one thing, the God who created it all also knows the end of the story where the enemy is cast out, and right now i’m looking forward to that. Sometimes I get tired of this spiritual battle. The only thing I fear is myself allowing unbelief to creep in. hold on tight.
