FEAR

Fear…

Fear…


There are cute acronyms for this word.

The pain.

The darkness. The heartbreak.


I awoke this morning anxious, and afraid and felt as though darkness inhabited my mind.


It was fear. I knew him well.

He was rage. He was darkness. He was ready to consume me…

And then I remembered…


I AM NOT A MISTAKE.

I EARNED THIS LIFE…

NOT BY MY OWN DEEDS. BUT BY THE LOVE OF MY GOD.


And I breathed. And I processed. And I found rest.

In my soul. In my heart. In my mind.

And it was afraid.

Fear was afraid.


I felt it tremble and shiver and be thrown into a panic…

Fear was afraid and it fled. It has every right to be. Its vice on my heart has been shattered.


It holds me no longer. And it cowers in fear.
