Let Go of Fear

​

God does not love us because we are lovable of and by ourselves, but because he has put his own love into us.  He does not even wait for us to love; his own love perfects us.  Letting it do this, with no resistance, no holding back for fear of what our egotism must give up, is the one way to the peace that the world can neither give nor take away.

​

There is no fear in love;

but perfect love casts out fear.

1 John 4:18
