Do Not Be Afraid


Everyday we are faced with different challenges and fears in life; may it be for us or for our love ones. Life in all its goodness will always have its mysteries that only God can reveal. Encountered with pains, fears and anxiety, the psalmist reaffirms his faith in God in Psalm 77:14, “You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.” God is a promise keeper. He said in Isaiah 41:10, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” When others seem to fail us, we can always cling on to God because He never fails. The bible tells us that even all the hairs of our head is counted and stressing further, Jesus said that we have nothing to be afraid of because we are worth more than many sparrows, Luke 12:6-7.

In our fears O Lord we trust in You, in our doubts we believe in You and in our anxieties we cling to You. Amen.
