Single Mom Strong With Pam Kanaly預覽

Fear

I’ve never seen a single mom who has not struggled at some point with fear of what might happen. Physical challenges are difficult enough, but the emotional waves that roll over the top feel like the final blow in holding us under. Yet, there’s a provision in these impracticalities. Psalm 34:4 promises – I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

Not knowing what lies ahead can be frightful. It leaves one feeling exposed and helpless. Satan’s most destructive tool is a fretful, disturbed spirit: What dangers await me? How can I do this alone? Will my children be damaged? Fear goes for our weakest part. It crowds us into the corner and suffocates all rationality. It nurses the worst case scenario. It muddies the waters in our relationship with God causing us to forget God’s faithfulness in the past.

When we feed our anxieties, we fall into a frenzy. When we feed our faith, we fall into the Father’s goose-down comfort. God settles sinister emotions. If our “what if’s” become our “what is,” He can handle it.

What are your most foreboding “what if’s?” What is the Father telling you?

Beloved single mom, I see your anxious heart. But fearing what might happen cripples your capacity in following My leading. No evil will take you under. I am your protector. Your future may be out of your hands, but it is not out of mine. You are not alone. I love you. – Jesus
