 And so this love is the love that carries us through. It gets us past the fear in our lives. 1 John 4, verse 8 says, Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is what is God. God is love. He's agape. He's pure love. So when fear, that monster of fear, begins to sneak into your world and creep up upon you and begin to threaten you, you say, you know what, fear, let me remind you of who my daddy is.
