Father, Your love is whole and not broken. It pushes fear right out the door. When I am scared of the dark or worried about a test, help me remember that Your love is stronger than my fear. I am tired of carrying it. Please take my fear away today. Your love does the work. I just have to let go and trust You. Amen.
