Do not fear

What do we do when we had received a bad report about our health? How do we response when something bad just happened to us? What is our immediate response when we heard a loved one is injured?

How often do we think of the worst case scenario straight away when we received these news? We don't usually think that things will work out well in spite of what had happened. We were so quick to always expect the worst when something bad had happened that we forgot that sometimes things weren't as bad as the initial report presented to be.

Maybe that's why there are 365 verses in the bible that tell us do not fear or do not be afraid. One verse for each day of our lives. If something bad happens, for Christians, we can expect that it will work out for our good. Perhaps some of us had lost our jobs and we are thinking naturally how we are going to get a job , especially, if some of us are advanced in age. Perhaps a loved one is suffering from terminal cancer and we think there is no nope.

Do not be afraid when bad things happen. For we can look to Jesus for deliverance out of that bad happening. Jesus can turn things around for our good. Just remains at rest and God will take care of all our cares.
