The Transformation of "Super-Chicken" to "Super-Umma"

Nancy “umma” Bauer, Washington

 

   "Can we do it again?" 'Terra-the-Fearless' screamed with glee halfway
through the 55mph roller coaster ride. Six year old Terra and her 'Ubba-the-Brave' had ventured the adventure of 'California Screamin' in southern
California.


   'Fox-the-Cautious' and 'Umma the Urpee' had been the SMART ones! We
just shook our heads at them and muttered..."They're NUTS!" A 'g-force
face lift' with a 'reverse tummy tuck' didn't sound that fun to us.
  

  But when 'Fox-the-Cautious' conquered another roller coaster ride...Big Thunder Mountain..you'd have thought he'd conquered Mount Everest! THAT fear was faced and actually turned into fun! He was no longer 'Fox-the-Cautious'! NOW he was 'Fox-the-Fun-Seeker'!



And of course, being 'Umma-the-Urpee', I had to tell him the story of
fear ruling my life till the age of 45. How proud I was of him..that at
the age of 10 he had conquered the same fear that took me 45 years to
conquer!

Fear is a limiter and controller! Fear can rule our lives...believe me I know! My list of fears, before my faith in God, were longer then Santa's 'good kids' list!

   But faith in God...the faith that knows He takes care of me and that what ever happen was HIS plan for HIS reasons... has changed my life.

I know I was trapped by the "cage" of the devils induced fear. Fear..which comes only from the evil one..had me so limited that there was NO WAY I could have ventured out to do ANYTHING God had planned for my life. The 'stupid one' had me right where he wanted me..NOT walking by faith..NOT trusting in that God would take care of me.


  

My faith in God and His Son has increased SO much...by reading God's
word. And as my faith in how strong God's arms are, grows, my fears are
dwindling.

I'm not "Super-Umma" yet...but I know as my faith in my All Powerful
God increases,...someday I may be!


Drive on ice? NO PROB! God's controlling my car...there are angels on
my bumper!"


Drive to
Portland...even downtown... (couldn't have done that before!)... NO PROB! The Holy Spirit is 'sitting shotgun'!


Speak in front of the church?
(no one in church is suppose to be sitting there in their underwear...tried to imagine that...but...YUCK!) NO PROB!  I may be nervous, but God let's me know SOMEONE needs to hear this...so I read on, trusting in God with determination.


Fear grips each of us, in one way or another. And the world doesn't realize the limits fear put on us. Even the nightly news grips us with fear...so we will stay tuned in.


But freedom from fear is the most amazing thing that has happened in my life. The power of God and faith in Him has transformed my life.
  

The secret is… FAITH! FAITH CREATES FREEDOM!

 

I praise my God daily! I'm free from fear and reaching for my red cape!... soon to transform from "Super-Chicken" to "SUPER-UMMA"!
