July 31 ~ I HAVE NO REASON TO FEAR: FEAR NOT
Psalm 46:1 “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.”
Twenty-eight years ago, when I was pregnant with our second daughter, I was placed on bedrest and later admitted to the hospital due to high blood pressure. Fear tried to overtake me as I worried about my health, my baby’s health, and if my baby would live. Yet, in the midst of all the angst I was feeling, my church family prayed along with my family. Days later during a routine procedure, my nurse came in, checked my fetal heartbeat, and I was relieved to hear my baby’s strong heartbeat! At that very moment, God gave me peace that caused my worry to cease!
