Fear

What makes us do what we do? What place, if any, does fear have in our lives? So many times I feel consumed with worry - not just about things that I almost feel are natural, like "Will Paul grow up to love Jesus?", but "What does this person think of me?" Why is it that social and peer pressure can't dissapate as we age? I struggled so much with this when I was in high school - and yet parenting and making choices that I feel are right for Paul, Sean and myself has brought it even more to the forefront of my mind, however, there is a solution!

I need to trust in Jesus more - trust that what others think of me is none of my business - and that I need only HIS approval, only HIS love and grace. Ahh. even just looking at this simple reminder helps.
