we should all have a fear and a reverence towards God himself. other than that, as Christians, what do we have to fear? love, commitment to something/someone, the future, death, life, etc. etc. these are things that we should embrace and cherish not fear. what has happened to the spirit of adventure and stepping into the unknown? what has happened to peoples faith in knowing that God will see them through?
proverbs 3:5 (amp) says, "lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding." what happened to that?
there is no need for fear in our lives, it will only trap you. make you a puppet. if you cater to your fear, you are only feeding it to grow and turn into something worse. meet your fear toe to toe, deal with it and then move on and know that God is there with you. 2 timothy 1:7 "we have not been given a spirit of fear, but of peace, love and a sound mind".
i could continue with scripture but i won't. read it yourself. deal with your fear....
