Loving others is a risk. It is like lowering your shield and putting away your sword in order to extend the right hand of fellowship. You have been betrayed in the past, and so you fear the possibility of hurt through rejection, particularly a humiliating rejection such as that you experienced before. Believe in the Lord's promise when He says this kind of sorrow will not happen a second time.
Blessings will overtake you; make preparation! It would not seem necessary to prepare for blessings, but it is prudent to do so. It is possible to be overwhelmed by blessing as well as by stress. Be overwhelmed by God's presence and His love, and all will be well apart from any material or physical preparation you make.
The Lord asks you to trust Him and to remember that He is in your circumstances. Go with the flow of His perfect will. God is with you. He acts on your behalf to protect you. It is safe to trust Him. All of His promises are good.
Scripture: "Moses answered the people, 'Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again'" (Exodus 14:13).
"And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God" Deuteronomy 28:2, KJV.
