Hearts Collide

Isaiah 41:10 says "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

I am a fighter by nature...show me an injustice and I want to wade into it with guns drawn. Show me the downtrodden and I’m coming in swinging a heavy bat...threaten me or my family, and GOD AS MY WITNESS I WILL __________. What am I saying? More importantly, what is He saying?

The Spiritual war is greater than the Physical one. Two things jump off of the page as I read scriptures: 1)DO NOT FEAR 2) BE COMPASSIONATE. Fear is the weapon that is wielded the most by the people of the world...fear causes us to lose faith, to trust in ourselves and run headlong into physical battles we cannot win. Fear causes us to act outside the calling that Christ has called us to. Wherever you are, whatever you do...DO NOT BE AFRAID.

”Oh No, we’ll never bow low
Won’t be silent gotta shout it out
Hearts Collide, like sparks in the night
Gotta show them what we’re made of
There’s nothing we’re afraid of
You and I
Like fire in the sky
Gonna show them what we’re made of
There’s nothing we’re afraid of”

May this be our anthem, that we will not fear and we are a people of love. Let our conversation collide and let the result be a flash of light in a world of darkness and above all, let us not be afraid.
