You know what?

I’m going to stop trying to anticipate when someone might hurt me.

I’m not going to let fear of what someone might do stop me from doing what is in me to do, and what I am eager to do, which is to love fully without holding back. (2 Timothy 1:7)

If and when you hurt me, I’ll deal with it then.

I can take the hurt.

And I know I CAN because of the power of Christ that is within me—power that allowed Him to take the hurt, power that can even raise the dead. (Hebrews 12:2, Philippians 4:13)

There’s nothing you can do to me that Jesus can’t heal. In fact, all you can do is make me stronger. (Romans 8:37-39)

Here’s how “[His] perfect love casts out [my] fear.” (1 John 4:18)

I will not let fear stop me from enjoying His wonderful love.
