Love & Fear

June 28th, 2006 at 1:52 pm | No Comments

Yesterday I had an interview with Derek leaf and Mitch regarding joining the navs staff. Something Derek said was quite interesting. Picking up on my fear he referred to the following.

1 John 4:16b-18:
“God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.”

He also emphasized that the converse was true, there being no love in fear…

Just something to bear in mind.
