There is no fear in love (1 John 4:16-18)
Do not fear
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. 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.
John wants us to understand that as love is perfected, fear is driven out. As we learn to love God with all our hearts, soul, and mind, and love our neighbors as ourselves, we start letting go of so many of the self-protective concerns that motivate and drive us. Love drowns out our doubts, dread, and despair.
That’s why as we seek the kingdom of God first, everything else falls into place. Many of the negative traits and behaviors we try to pull out one by one would fall away if we put that energy into loving God and seeking His kingdom.
