CONFRONTING TRUMP FEARS

CONFRONTING TRUMP FEARS Fear is vanquished by power and love and a sound mind. "Power" means to possess the capacity to destroy. "Love" means to express empathy. "Sound mind" means wisdom and discretion in the exercise of these. Absence of them all spawns fear. But "God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind." https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.biblegateway.com/passage/%3Fsearch%3D2%2BTimothy%2B1%253A7%26version%3DKJV%26interface%3Damp?client=safari If not God, then, whence fear? Ask yourself this question as our unwarranted hysteria of President-Elect Donald Trump darkens our senses, plugs our ears, numbs our feelings, neuters our taste buds, stifles our scents and impairs our intuitions, with January 20, 2017, looming but days away from now. Gut check! Fear check! History check! Abnormal fear defies faith. Hold on to your God-given power, love, especially to sound minds!
