Faith Over Fear
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and off love and of a sound mind.—2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)
During Advent Angels seem to spring up everywhere: on Christmas cards and wrapping paper; in countless store windows and Nativity scenes. Take time this holiday season to turn back to the tremendous events of these celestial beings chronicled in Luke and Matthew. Listen carefully, the angels may have something to say to you this Christmas.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and off love and of a sound mind.—2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.—Isaiah 7:14 (NIV)

And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.—Romans 5:5 (NIV)
