Although many could afford generators, no one in the area wanted to take the lead and be identified as prosperous enough. Torn between the fear of encountering vicious gangs they often only heard of their exploits, and losses arising from frequent blackouts, they (including the friend we were visiting), settled for darkness, heat and the dreary.

?For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind.? ? 2 Timothy 1: 7 (KJV)

Has fear also denied you the use of God?s provisions?
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
