#Faith over Fear

[dearjewels22]

Stop chasing after it... it's already yours.

[thevirgodoll]

why are you waiting on confirmation that the best is on its way? you don’t need anyone to give you permission to claim what you deserve. it’s already written. this story already has your name on it. you just have to stop rewriting it because you don’t think it’s possible.

“For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand,

Saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.'"

- Isaiah 43:12

There are several passages in the Bible that encourage us to "fear not" and have faith in the Lord.

You are a daughter of God, you are the apple of His eye, His princess. God's love is so deep and personal and intimate! He is your heavenly daddy who takes you by your hand, like a mother crossing the road with her child, and He helps you and protects you. We need only put our faith in Him and trust that He will never let go.

In The Storm With Jesus - Part 1

[feastingonchrist]

you guys it was maybe a month ago i was SOBBING to God, not once but twice that week because i was struggling terribly with my social skills and feeling so insecure and embarrassed. I felt like i lost all my progress i had made over the past few years. to now in the past weeks i have felt so much more confident while talking to people, even people at work i barely even know and multiple people have told me they can see my personality coming through/i'm like a new person. that has blown me away!!! He is literally bringing me to life. ALL I DID WAS BEGIN GOING TO CHURCH AND ALL OF THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN POURED OUT UPON ME! i decided to try and not overthink how i'm coming across and what i'm going to say and it's released the pressure off of me. i've surrendered that to God to handle because i didn't want to deal with it anymore and He has been taking care of it so fast. my confidence has grown so much in the shortest amount of time ever in my life. like He really meets me in the darkest places and soon after begins to move and renews my mind and Spirit and attitude and perspective on things. He has been in the process of helping me move through fear as i walk into it but continues to deliver me out of it into a better place. He is helping me with my endurance and it's made me to trust in Him in deeper ways. i've begun delighting in Him with tenderness and am soaking in His peace and it's been grounding. like i've entered a new layer of peace with Him and my gosh it's so gentle and tangible and i just want to stay there forever in that Presence sometimes. my spiritual discipline isn't the greatest at times and He's getting me there (Psalm 23:1-2 moment.) But my goodness it's wild to have gone from believing in Christ but not putting my faith to action to now doing exactly that and i have just been receiving blessing after blessing - whether it's spiritual (seeing grace everywhere) or relational (just people loving me like Jesus or enjoying my job and adoring going to church and talking to people every week as i practice my social skills.) I say this all the time "idk why all of a sudden He's decided to start blessing me in these ways and what did i do to deserve it?" i know i did nothing and that He has always loved me right where i'm at but it's interesting as i follow the patterns of these past few months and i can't help but wonder if it's all because i have been taking steps of faith into the unknown and it's tested my trust in Him and endurance in those "dim mirrors" as Paul would say which has brought me into closer communion with Christ and i've been able to "see more clearly" and understand things on a deeper spiritual level. idk but ugh HE IS SO GOOD I AM CONSTANTLY TOUCHED AND HE IS JUST DOING GREAT THINGS WITHIN ME AND THE OTHERS AROUND ME. I wish i could talk ab these things without sounding repetitive but i swear He is doing these things and having me learn them/lessons over and over again to show me that i can trust Him and work things out of me to bring the new in. i really do love Him so much my gosh i really do. This is the best season of my entire walk with Him since i got saved in 2021 nearly 4 whole yrs ago and i am trying to soak it all in and even process it!!!! so i share all of this on here bc it's a lil diary for me, i love to share what He's doing for me to show others He can do it for anyone and i want to give hope to others with my testimonies. i have had so many of these recently and it's made me so joyful 🥹

Introduction

Hi, I’m Eternalholygirl!

I am a 16 year old, catholic girl from Germany who dedicates her life to Jesus.

This, from now on, will be Christian blog where I will regularly post Bible verses, "diary entries", pictures and a LOT more

I don’t have many Christian friends and my family isn’t Christian either, so I’m hoping I can find some people to connect with, reach some people and share my love for the one and only lord here <3

[this is a secondary blog, so I will not be able to follow anyone back, but I am still more than happy to connect with anyone]

what if instead of being afraid

you got excited? like every time you got that familiar, gut-sinking, what-if-this-doesn't-happen feeling, you boldly reminded yourself it already did happen? and that where you go in imagination you must go in the flesh, too? what if you imagined, in that moment of fear, you were hiking with your best friend, who happens to know and consciously apply the law, too, and instead of dwelling in doubt and worry and stress the two of you walked to the edge of the nearest cliff overlooking the rivers and pines and cumulus clouds and you yelled. together, you yelled, "it already happened! it is already mine!" as loud as you could. and you felt all that energy rise from your gut through your chest through your throat out your mouth into air and as you let it go into air you laughed and hugged and felt the most profound sense of relief and joy and wonder and awe and gratitude because you knew it was enough, to be here on earth with your best friend at all, but you knew, too, this wasn't all. that there really was--there really is--so much good to come. that what you have within your mind's eye and in your heart must express, that it will, in the exact right moment, in the exact right "now," and how wonderful to know, to feel, deep in your bones in your nerves in your muscles in your cells, you already have it now.

It happened. I'm actually... not going trick or treating today.

I've chosen God's Conviction over tradition and I'm staying home (I'm Home because I'm His.)

It felt like a battle, to be understood and then to overcome my own anxieties but I'm here and I thank God for courage, for the strength only He gave me. and for sisters in Christ who have encouraged and supported me. It's relieving to lean on Him and only Him and embrace His Comfort, and I can understand that I'm not missing out on anything. I'm with my Lord and where else would I ever want to be? No moment spent in worship and dedication is wasted. I'm with my Father, I'm blessed. I thank Jesus.

Instead of participating in something with dark roots I'm drawing close to the God who is Light  and instead of suppressing conviction I've overcome the fear of speaking up and instead of a scratchy costume I'm in my soft nightgown.

Tonight will be spent spending time with Jesus and reading Scripture and listening to worship music and writing poetry for Him.

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." - Isaiah 41:10

No matter what you're facing today, remember this: God's love surrounds you. He's with you, always.
