One of my favorite movies is “Snow White & the Huntsman” with Kristen Stewart & Chris Hemsworth. There is a scene when they are attacked by a big, scary troll. The Huntsman tells Snow White to run while he trying to fight the beast. The Huntsman gets knocked unconscious by the troll. Snow White, does not run off & she stands up to the troll. She yells right back at him. The huge troll lets out a roar that causes Snow White to fall back onto the ground. Instead of being scared or intimidated by the beast, she stands back up and stares it down. The troll looks in her eyes and turns around and leaves. The Huntsman wakes up and reprimands her for not leaving. But she said, “If I would have you would have been killed.”
The “wolves of worry” can sometime look like the troll in this movie. Big,ugly, loud & intimidating. Our society tells us to run, worry & feel sorry for ourselves. Yet, when we stand up to the things that cause us to worry and be anxious, the fear will disappear. Snow White is a character who is the daughter of a king. The troll seemed to sense that as he stared her down. We, as children of God are daughters & sons of THE King. As we stand in the face of fear and worry I pray that all others will see is His presence in me. We have nothing to fear. If we choose to walk in fear & worry, we have no idea who that might affect. So let’s stand up today against the “wolves of worry!” As we stand up against the enemy, no matter how loud the growl, His Presence will conquer every time!
