Trust More Fear Less: Day 2

Day 2

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

~John 16:33

The Gospels list some 125 Christ-issued imperatives. Of these, 21 urge us to "not be afraid" or "not fear" or "have courage" or "take heart" or "be of good cheer." The second most common command, to love God and neighbor, appears on only eight occasions. If quantity is any indicator, Jesus takes our fears seriously. The one statement he made more than other was this: don't be afraid

My Thoughts:

Whatever we may be going through in our lives there is always someone who we can go to and just vent our problems to. That someone is Jesus! He knows exactly what we are going through and he knows exactly how he feel. Like it says in the scripture above he has overcome the world. That means he has over come all of our problems and obstacles in life, not just one or two of them but ALL!

So if having an amazing Savior by your side who can relate to us, who loves us, who died for us doesn't make you fearless... I don't know what will.
