What El Salvador Taught Me About Fear - A Nighttime Prayer


1x
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us." - 1 John 4:18-19

Please Pray:

Heavenly Father, today, my prayer is a simple one in a world that is complex and often unforgiving. I ask that You would provide us with knowledge that will empower us to love the way that You love. I ask this not only for our neighbors but for the generations who will walk the paths that we choose today. In Your Holy Name, Amen.

In social situations, she steers clear of you and refuses to make eye contact. When trying to reach out, you draw back an emotional nub of rejection. You rack your brain trying to figure out what you did to make her dislike you but come up blank. Read more...
