Why am I afraid when I know that God is with me?
What is there to fear in the presence of perfect and unwavering love?
Though my body may become ill or injured, my spirit remains untouched and unharmed by this world.
Nothing can hurt that place in me wherein God’s love resides.
Only that which is temporary can become sick or broken.
What use is there in fearing that the temporary will pass away when it is its very nature to do so?
There is no reason to fear for God’s love is, was, and forever will be.
NOTHING TO FEAR
