Good Morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God\u2019s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God\u2019s love]. -1 John 4:18<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Fear is based from evil. Normally things we are afraid of are because something has happened, either to us or someone we heard of, that is originated from evil intentions. Love is the opposite of fear and the opposite of evil, so there is no fear in perfect love. So if we can continually grow our relationship with God and continue to increase our faith, we can use God\u2019s perfect love to drive out the fear that we might harbor within us. Now, that might be easier said than done but it can be done nonetheless, but only through God and His perfect love\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPerfect love is perfectly patient.\u201d -Neal Maxwell<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe opposite of fear is love so today meditate on God\u2019s unconditional love for you and watch fear leave your heart and life!\u201d -Gloria Coleman<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I used to run a dating agency for chickens but I had to close it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I was struggling to make hens meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a great Friday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good Morning!
