AND THAT IS WHAT WE ARE!<br /><br />There is NO FEAR in love! But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.<br /><br />This is love for God: to obey his commands. AND HIS COMMANDS ARE NOT BURDENSOME!!!<br /><br />wow! these words speak to my heart so dearly, almost like it is the very first time I have heard them. How great it is that we are loved so dearly without any doing on my part! perfect love has no fear, why should i fear the world?!?!? and HIS commands are NOT burdensome....it isn't a dreaded chore, it is love to carry out the Lord's commands. <br /><br />I know this all seems so simple, but it has opened my eyes all over again =)Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06894349645419781567noreply@blogger.com
