"Fear is useless; what is needed is trust." (Luke 8: 50; Mark 5: 36)


"Fear is useless; what is needed is trust."  (Luke 8: 50; Mark 5: 36)

Jesus overheard what was said to Jairus about the death of his 12 year old daughter and said to him, "Fear is useless; what is needed is trust."  I met people today who are terrified of end of life issues.  I said to them, "Fear is useless; what is needed is trust."  I also added, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own perception.  In everything you do, acknowledge Him and He will direct your path." (Proverbs 3: 5-6)

The Christian has a silver bullet in his armor against fear: Faith!  Faith is generated by prayer and the word of God.  Faith destroys fear, worry and doubt.
