There is a stampede of fear out there. Let's not get caught in it. Let's be among those who stay calm. Lets recognize the danger but not be overwhelmed. Acknowledge threats but refuse to be defined by them. Let others breathe the polluted air of anxiety, not us. let's be numbered among those who hear a different voice, God's.
Enough of these shouts of despair, walls of doom. Why pay heed to the doomsdayer on Wall street or the purveyor of gloom in the newspaper? We will incline our ears elsewhere: upward. we will turn to our Maker, and because we do, we will fear less. "The righteous shall be glad in the Lord and trust in Him, and all the upright in heart shall glory." (Psalm 64:10)
(Taken from Max Lucado's Fearless)
Amen. The Bible says 365 times to fear not. We have recorded about 6000 years of God's commitment to His people in the Scriptures, He took good care of them and continues to take good care of us. Look up and listen to the wispers of our God who loves us more than we love ourselves. Our lives are in His hand. That is true secutiry
