Topic: We Are Not Afraid

What makes us afraid? It isn't pleasant to talk about what is fearful, but if we run from what makes us afraid, what makes us afraid can get us and can devour us. In our life we are afraid of job loss, illness, death, terrorism, separation from others, loss of income, and loss of money, plus many other things. We are also afraid of what others may do to us, afraid to speak our mind due to embarrassment, and in many ways, we are afraid of change. The older we get, the more fearful we can become. When we are young, we tend to have less fear, but even the young can be afraid. However, with God and with Christ, we need not be afraid. With God and with Christ, we need not be afraid of change because when we grow in God's love and grace, our growth is a most wonderful and pleasant gift from God. With God and with Christ, we look forward to the future, not with dread, but with anticipation. With God and with Christ, we look forward to a new day every day to do His will and do His work.
