Fear Not

I purposely don't watch the news. I mean..maybe once in a while for travel conditions or weather, but other than that I see no real need to. It scares me. All I can do is pray for the world but knowing that God is in control and that His will is going to be done, gives me peace when I pray. There are other things I fear and it's coming up tomorrow. A root canal. I've never had one and maybe it will be no big deal, but I've heard some stories and to be honest....like the news....I'd rather not hear about it. Futuristic thinking scares me too so I try to live in the day and diligently looking for the good in life. What can I do today? Who should I help? Who should I not? How can I make someone smile...or better yet...laugh. I don't have a lot of talents or gifts but what I do have, I'd like to use. A friend was telling me she feels trapped and I, feeling a little philosophical wrote...the trapping you speak of is in your mind...not inside walls. Release your fears and take small steps to open your world. She replied "okey dokey". Haven't heard from her since. However, it did motivate me to finish the laundry. God is good and I am blessed. Whom shall I fear? No one because He is with me. Make it a great week.
