10 Reasons You Should Not Fear
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you… Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” (John 14:27)
We live in a time of fear, worry and anxiety. If we’re not careful, our lives can be dominated by a sense of dread regarding the future and world events. We can also live in daily fear, worrying about every little thing - our own personal difficulties, finances, or just our simple, everyday needs. Thankfully, God has made a way for us to live without fear.
In John 14:27 Jesus says we can have peace and tells us not to be afraid. Clearly, if Jesus tells us not to be afraid, there must be many good reasons not to fear. It must be possible!
As we focus on God’s promises, and less on the world around us, I believe our hearts can be established in peace. The kind of peace God gives is not the absence of storms, but peace in the midst of storms. Storms will always come. But we do not have to be shaken. We can be at peace. We can have victory over fear.
