“Perfect love drives out fear…
Oh, I spent a lot of months afraid, afraid of what could go wrong. I wanted to run away. I became weird and just didn’t want to share this joy with the world. Then I remembered that the gift of the Lord makes so much rich; it adds no sorrow.
My big,
We are light, we are a city set on a hill, there is no hiding place for a goldfish.
So my praise is louder than any fear. It’s different this time. He makes all things beautiful in his time.
