You may have came across my post in the "I Need A Hug" forum and you may also have seen my recent reading from the lovely EoT.
I'd like to tell you all, in case anybody else is feeling the same, that I have finally figured out why I was in such a dark place and why I felt stuck.
After praying to God and seeking help from the lovely amazing Jesus, as well as my angel, I can finally see that what has apparantly binded me down for so long is Fear.
And I finally understand fear for what it is.
It is not the world that's been scaring me after all. It is the FEAR that has been making me feel lost, lonely and anxious. Fear is not from God, fear only has power over you if you let it.
Yes, FEAR, I'm naming you and shaming you!
Get out of town! Your plan is no longer working.
LOL.
I have let fear control my life to a really high degree :/ and I was oblivious too it, in my own little bubble. Now I don't need a bubble!
Fear has manifested itself and GROWN in my life in so many ways...from what I THOUGHT was a self-confidence issue...to the way I've been sleeping at night. Ever since I was little I have been sleeping with the duvet pulled right up to my face! Well last night someone was there for me and someone was protecting me so that I did not need that duvet past my elbow!!!! Everytime "FEAR" started creeping in again....My mind said FEAR BE GONE IN JESUS NAME! and the warmth and light I sensed around me was incredible.
"Do not be afraid, for I am the Lord your God..." - I can't remember the verse this is but it's going in my signature!
HALLELUJAH!
