I am 30 and still get nightmares from horror movies.
I feel like I shouldn’t be saying that, but oh well.
Horror movies are not for me.
They freak me out and I don’t enjoy sitting in suspense just
to see someone surprise someone, freak them out and kill them.
Not my cup of tea.
Anytime I see a movie like this, it completely freaks me
out.
This is why I tend to focus on educational movies like Dumb
and Dumber.
I get scared, a little freaked out from watching scary
movies.
I get scared with other areas of life too.
I’m scared of several different things.
The first one that pops in my head is losing my family.
What are you afraid of in life?
Paul was going to share the word of God in a city with unbelievers
in the city of Corinth.
Corinth was known to be a pretty ruthless city.
It was full of sexual sins of every kind and was not a very
holy place.
Yet while staying here, God says this to Paul in verses 9-10…
“Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent. For I
am with you, and no one is going to attack and harm you, because I have many
people in this city.”
Even in a city like Corinth, God has many people there.
This would be kinda like Vegas.
Even though it’s still called sin city there are Christians
there trying to change the city.
God gives Paul the ability to stay bold and not to fear.
God is with Paul.
God can be with you with what you are going through in life.
You do not have to be afraid.
Jesus loves you and even through the worst of times you are
going through in life, he loves you.
He cares for you, thinks of you as one of his own.
While tough times will happen, it’s nice to have the love of
God with you.
What do you fear?
What are you scared of?
Know this.
God can be with you.
God wants to be there for you.
It just requires you calling out to him.
What do you think?
Have a great day.
