keeping secrets, that is not one of my strong suits. 

“If you're in trouble,” my wife said in a very sympathetic voice, “we
can get through this together. 

At that point, I only wished I knew some trouble that I could talk about
that we could work through together. The problem was, my week had been 
so wonderful, and everything that needed to be done, I was able to do 
it. 

Trouble? I can't think about any trouble that would necessitate a Social
Security Officer to come and arrest me. 

We sat in the living room and tried to figure out what kind of trouble
would necessitate an arrest warrant. We couldn't come up with anything. 
And believe me, if my wife can't come up with the definition of 
trouble, it just doesn't exist. 

Believe me, the next afternoon, we were very nervous, not knowing what
to do. But the afternoon led into the evening, and then we went to bed. 


That was four weeks ago. I have not received any more phone calls. No
Social Security Officer has shown up at my door with a warrant for my 
arrest. 

As it turns out, those four weeks of nervous anticipation were a
complete waste. As far as we can understand, it must've been a scam to 
rattle our cage. We were careful for nothing at all. 

The other night as I was thinking of this, a verse of Scripture came to
mind. “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: 
because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 
(I John 4:18). 

I have a choice that I can surrender my fear for love. That love that
only God can give.
