Greatest Fear Becomes Reality

Fear is something many single and widowed moms quietly carry, especially after loss or trauma. In this episode, Laurie Apon shares personal insight and biblical truth to address the lie that fear causes painful outcomes. Through Scripture, testimony, and encouragement, this conversation reminds listeners that God is sovereign, fear does not override His will, and nothing in your story has taken Him by surprise. You will be encouraged to release shame, confront fear with truth, and trust God’s presence and grace even when what you feared has come to pass.

Key Takeaways

• Fear does not create reality or override God’s sovereignty.

• When feared outcomes happen, they are not your fault and are not evidence of failure or lack of faith.

• Scripture clarifies that God allows trials, but fear itself is a tool the enemy uses to add shame.

• God may use fear as preparation, not permission, and He remains present through every season.

• Forgiveness is essential for healing and freedom, even when the pain is ongoing and complex.
