The photo above is of my 10yr old fur baby Nera. She was rescued by SPCA as a young kitten and then we adopted her at 8weeks old. She feels the safest snuggled up in her igloo, or hiding in the grasses in our garden.
I think the most fear I faced would have been in the past 18 months to do with the uncertainty around our livelihoods, health, family and friendships. The media and social media certainly played a massive role in the fear mongering. I lost many hours of sleep worrying about the unknown and the what if's. Shedding lots of tears and voicing my concerns to loved ones about these, helped a little but the fear was still lurking.
What got me through the fear? Coming back to my faith and having a deeper relationship with God. One day I just happened to come across a Facebook live of a Pastor in England who was speaking of all the things I was searching for. He had only come into faith 3 years ago after an attempt at suicide. His story spoke deeply to me and the words of God that he proclaimed moved in me so much that I had a physical and spiritual awakening. I felt the past curses and demons exit my life and with that they took the fear, uncertainty, pain, sorrow and negativity with it. I have never felt so free. God's Love defeats all fear.
