The Spirit of Fear

“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love” (1 John 4:18).


Tears in my eyes as I cry over a situation I don’t know how to handle.
Fear is paralyzing and you have made us quadriplegic.
It has immobilized our love and has begun to lead our actions
Replaced hope and belief leaving doubt and distrust
It has aborted our babies and annulled our marriage

You allowed it.

The devil revels in fear and my God is for the faithful and hopeful
Negativity seeped in through a crack in our bond and it has sucked the life out of our love leaving darkness and fear, unafraid, I see clear
The darkness does not blind me.

Scary to me is not love but losing love because of fright.
There is no deeper, more lingering pain then knowing you had love but let fear chase it away.
Regret me not; stop before I fly away
Here my positivity is being drowned, my love stifled, my faith questioned
Hear my pleas, witness my tears, and sacrifice nothing else for fear
I must soon leave this sinking place
And you too if you can’t quickly see…

The barriers you have placed to protect your self are bruising me
My attempts to run into your arms slams me against a brick wall
Battered and sore I pick myself up
Trusting this love heals me, visualizing a bright future cause’s amnesia, my soreness is massaged away by your convincing words
Once my blackened eyes heal I see you standing there arms opened again calling for my embrace, so I run…

I run chin up, arms open, eyes shut… Feeling the breeze of speed hit me

I run fearlessly towards your arms…

…Slam into your wall of fear and distrust
Scraping my face…bruising my heart

I must soon leave this sinking place~

“God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind”
(2 Timothy 1:7)

I'm feeling this 100%... been there, done that, and you captured the feeling of it perfectly in my opinion... nice work

Thanks for reading, glad you liked it =)
