BOB
Good Morning! This is Bob Peden of Central a United Methodist Community here in Meridian. If you go to the grocery store on an empty stomach, you're a sitting duck! You buy everything you don't need. Doesn't matter if it's good for you, you just want to fill your tummy.
When you're lonely, you do the same C pulling stuff off the shelf, not because you need it, but because you're hungry for love. For fear of not fitting in, we take drugs. For fear of appearing small, we go into debt and buy the house. For fear of going unnoticed, we dress to impress. But all that changes when we discover God's perfect love.
The perfect love that the Apostle John says "casts out fear." You see fear: of loneliness, of not being popular, of insignificance, that drives us away from God and into the world. Cast out all fear in your life and turn instead to trust the God who is faithful, true, and loving. In God there is no fear.
