Fear will hound you with what could go wrong until it’s all you can see.
Fear will keep you prisoner in a dark cell until you’re unable to trust anyone.
Fear will feed you stress, worry, and despair in exchange for any peace, joy, and hope you’re still holding onto.
But.
Fear can be kicked out at any time by agreeing with just one word from God.
“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up” (Isaiah 41:10a).
“I’m giving you a gift—peace of mind and heart, a kind of peace the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid” (John 14:27).
“God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7).
