SEPTEMBER 13
My love casts out all fear.
1 John 4:18
Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. NLT

If you are afraid that you will not measure up to My expectations, yield to My reassuring love, and love will cast out everything that makes you feel afraid. Fear cannot abide in the presence of My everlasting love, and anxiety is no match for My perfect peace.
So, if you are struggling with any expression of fear today, be comforted, knowing that you don't have to fight this battle in your own strength. Just invite My love to fight for you and watch as My infinite affection drives out any misguided notions of who I am. Nothing you could ever do would make Me love you more than I do now.
As you believe you are completely accepted in the Beloved at this very moment, all fear of punishment will cease. And you will know at a deeper heart level that nothing in all creation can ever separate you from My love in Christ—today, tomorrow, and forever.
