Power, love and self-discipline

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”
‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭NLT‬‬

What a gift! A new spirit , one of power, love and self-discipline. The only spirit on offer from our enemy is fear in the same package. 3:1 ratio. Worth taking!

Ideas of fear come. One came to me this morning. How will you cope financially when Warren goes to Nepal. The answer: the same way I have coped before he came to stay for the three weeks before he left. Warren, my Nepal missions buddy, had to vacate his house as he had let it and then new tenants wanted in sooner. He has been a financial blessing.

I am in my last week of term at uni and studying for a major exam. At this point I am over study and longing for a break. It will come soon enough. Self-discipline keeps me from fear about my exam. Each day I study. Today being Sunday is off as my eyes are hurting .

Today is for worship and rest. Amen!
