The Stone

What if the real problem is not what I am feeling on the surface, but what I am afraid of underneath?

Ripple One: Practical

Today, when I feel irritated or off, I will slow down and ask a better question: What am I afraid of right now? I will name it plainly instead of masking it with anger or control.

Ripple Two: Spiritual

Fear loses power when it is brought into the light. God is not leading me into fear but out of it. When I surrender the fear beneath my reactions, the Spirit begins to loosen its grip and replace it with peace.

Prayer

God, help me see what is really driving me today. Give me the courage to name my fear and trust You with it. Free me from what I keep trying to hide. Amen.
