“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
2 Timothy 1:7
I Refuse came from one of the hardest moments of my life. Five months after being laid off, I still did not have a job offer and was overwhelmed with anxiety and fear. When we got our first project, I was paralyzed by the thought of failing.
The fear became physical. I could not breathe, my heart raced, and I struggled to stand. My wife, Nicole, sat with me and helped me through it. I had never felt so weak and broken.
During that time, I found words in a translation of 2 Timothy 1:7 that stayed with me: “I refuse to give in to fear.” They became a bold reminder that God did not give me a spirit of fear. I needed to refuse to let fear control me and keep choosing to stand firm, even while battling anxiety and depression.
This shirt is a reminder that God is bigger than our circumstances. He has equipped us with the tools to stand firm. I want these words to remind me to show up, believe, and keep going.
Not fear. Instead:
02 · 2 Timothy 1:7Strength that doesn’t come from you, for the days that ask more than you have.
The kind that moves toward people and problems instead of away from them.
Clear thinking when the wave is loudest. Steady, not swept under.
