No Fear

2 Timothy 1:7

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

First Bible verse I taught all three of my kids. I remember their confidence in the words they were learning, the peace.

Today 2 Timothy 1:7 pops up, makes me smile - memories - and soothes my soul.

No fear.
