Fear is a necessary emotion that helps us to exercise caution when placed in a dangerous situation. However, we must not allow our imagination and feelings to rule our lives in the many trials and troubles that we face daily. Idle fears will only serve to paralyze us and prevent us from living life to the fullest.
Purposefully permit ourselves to be guided by reason and faith while fixing our attention on the tasks at hand. We must do our best to handle the situation and be ready to accept the outcome of our efforts as the Lord’s will for us. Let us place our cares in His hands.
