Do Not Fear!

Most people don’t like to be afraid.  Sadly, our culture is not only able smell fear, but preys upon it.  The reason is simple: Fear motivates us; it causes us either to move or paralyzes us… and if the fear-inducing agent can be accurately aimed, it moves the fearful in the desired direction, or paralyzes them and thus prevents their movement in undesired directions.   But this is not a lesson on cultural means and methods of manipulation.  However, and from a spiritual perspective, we need to not only know what we’re most afraid of, but more importantly, how God calms those fears.
