Are you ever nervous that your secret will be exposed? We all have secrets, or things that we rather others not to know. If we are honest we have thoughts of insecurities. The enemy gets in our thoughts and has us to question, am I really as strong as people think? Am I really courageous? Can I really have my dreams? We don’t want others to know about our insecure thoughts.

Have you heard Anthony Brown & Group Therapy’s new song, Trust in You. I Love this song!!! The lyrics are piercing to the heart, “You did not create me to worry, you did not create me to fear, you created me to worship daily, so I will leave it all right here!” I went out with a friend the other day and as I drove home, I heard this song on the radio, I was wow’d.
