Not Scared

Where are the people that accused me?
The ones who beat me down and bruised me
They hide just out of sight
Can't face me in the light
They'll return but I'll be stronger


God, I want to dream again

Take me where I've never been

I want to go there

This time I'm not scared

Now I am unbreakable,

it's unmistakable

No one can touch me

Nothing can stop me


Sometimes it's hard to just keep going
But faith is moving without knowing
Can I trust what I can't see
To reach my destiny
I want to take control but I know better


Forget the fear
it's just a crutch
That tries to hold you back
And turn your dreams to dust
All you need to do is just trust

for so long i've been scared. of what?


losing control? being vulnerable?


If i could only grasp the perfectness of His LOVE...


...then maybe i could trust him to take me where I really want to go


there's no limit to what i can do in Him


there's no limit to where i can go in Him


no boxes, no chains, no stopping





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

-1 john 4:18






bungee jumping was such a powerful experience for me because its an illustration of what i want in my spirit..... to let go and put my trust in something that i can't understand. it's not a perfect illustration, of course, but the exhilerating feeling of allowing yourself to overcome the fear of falling to your death because your trust is in something you can't hang on to, but you know is holding on to you.

i want to let go of these irrational fears. I KNOW that God loves me. I KNOW that I can trust Him. He's got me.

HE LOVES ME!
