Fear is Like Pain

From another great blog! Thank you God- for meeting me where I am!

'Fear is like pain.
Pain is given as an indicator that something is going on.
Pain says, "Hey, pay some attention here." Step away from the flame. Get that splinter out. Cease what you are doing, the child is coming now. Go to the doctor and see what's causing this.

Fear does the same.
Where fear pops up, makes itself known, there stands God, right behind me, right with me, saying,
"Pay attention here! I am doing something with you.
The timing of this fear is not by accident.
Let's have the conversation that needs to happen here.
This is the topic.
This is the time."

Go there."

Fear is a place a of growth, a place where God "wants to do something with you."
