Greetings:
Fear is something we all face. Fear is faith in reverse.
I once read that the phrase ''do not be afraid'' is written in the Bible 365 times. That is a daily reminder from God to live everyday fearless.
2 Timothy 1:7 says, “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
There are a bunch of fears out there.
I “Googled” (did an Internet search) of the word phobia, which is an extreme fear and found countless fears, including the common ones like: fear of death, loneliness, people, authority, commitment, heights, germs, closed-in spaces, airplanes rides, snakes, failure, rejection, being laughed at.
The list goes on.
There is even something called phobaphobia, which is the fear of being afraid or the fear of fear.
Today, are we ready to face our fear head-on with the helping hand of God's faith, his promises, his power; or are we going to simply deny it, ignore, hope it will go away or run from it?
We have that choice.
Choose faith, not fear.
Be blessed.
