What Fear Cannot Touch

Fear talks first in the morning. Before your feet touch the floor, it has already started its quiet list of what could go wrong, who might leave, what you might not be enough for. By the time you reach for your coffee, the conversation is underway, and fear is winning.
In this Word Burst, Samuel Reeves reads from First John chapter four, verse eighteen — "There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear." This devotional is for anyone who has been letting fear set the terms of the day. Samuel walks through what perfect love actually looks like: not the absence of trouble, but the steady, unhurried presence of God inside the trouble. He names the places fear has been speaking louder than grace — the diagnosis, the loss, the relationship that ended, the news you have not told anyone about yet — and presses gently into the older, stronger voice that has known you longer than any of it.
