And then?

 Last time I wrote about not having fear. There is a principle that runs through the bible: never leave a void.

Repentance of sin should be followed by filling the void with acts of righteousness. (Eph 4:28)
The void that fear leaves should be filled with Love, Power and a sound mind (2Tim1:7).
The soft heart should replace the hard heart.
And so on.

So my question: what are we filling the void with? Do we replace it with trust in our own abilities, or trust in our safety measures, or can we replace it with a firm trust that Our Father has us safe?
The answer produces fruit. Trust in our own abilities produces pride. Trust in devices produces obsessive behaviour. Trust in a Father that is good, and loving and able is the only safe place. This produces Rest and Peace and stability.

Ezekiel 17:23
"On the mountain heights of Israel I will plant it; it will produce branches and bear fruit and become a splendid cedar."

How?
Verse 8: it had been planted in good soil by abundant water...

What are we feeding ourselves- Living Water?

We do not have to live in fear.
