Fear

As you guys have read in a previous blog on Monday September 12, 2005 I had an encounter with a dog. I have been terrified to walk home ever since. On tuesday night my mom had told me that she could drive me home from Refuge, then I phone her and ask where she was (she was late) and she informs me that my brother had to go into work so she can't pick me up. I was very upset because I am frightened! I FEAR walking down my street now because of chances of that dog being there. I am so afraid of walking down that block that I take a route that takes soo much longer to get home just so i dont have to pass that street where the dog was. So anyways, my good friend Karyn offered me a ride home. I felt super bad cuz I had asked her for a ride earlier in the week and she said it was out of the way, but then this happens and I am scared to walk there. And so she drove me home, she also told me (a couple days before refuge) to look up verses on fear. So i did and they are at the end of this blog.

Sooooooo I dont really have much else to say. I need to get ready to go out. Im going out to a movie with a few of my friends!

Blessings!!

1 Peter 3:14~"But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. "Do not fear what they fear ; do not be frightened."
Isaiah 41:10~"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:13~"For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.
Psalm 3:6~"I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me on every side.
Psalm 91~"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."
Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. If you make the Most High your dwelling—even the LORD, who is my refuge- then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. You will tread upon the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation."
