Fears and Tears

The Lord has placed in my heart a desire to write. It has been there for many years. Today, I start on my leap of faith, following the voice of God. My blog is named “Fears and Tears”, where I trust God to give me the words to write. As I stumble through this life with many falls, I realize that God is always there. His gaze is on me. I have to remember to turn my gaze upon Him, in my distractions and noise of this world. To turn my face to His. To realize He is always there. To be no longer afraid to let Him in to the places I keep hidden from Him. To go there with grace to let go of this world, the social media, the television shows, the excess food, anything that does not lead me to God. To be silent and let Him in. Let Him speak to me while I listen. Let Him heal me. To cast off what does not belong to God. To listen to the voice of God. Lord, teach me to pray.

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and do not subject us to the final test, but deliver us from the evil one. Mt 6:9-13
