Fear Not

I have let fear keep me from doing alot of things in my life. I am scared of heights, fearful of spiders and snakes. I guess we all have something we are fearful of in our lives. Fear of the dark, fear of death, fear of being alone is just a few that people struggle with. It has been said Fear is listed 365 times in the bible. I researched this morning. “Be Not Afraid” is listed 103 times in King James. Fear is spoken of over 500 times in the Bible. That should tell us God doesn’t want us to fear. When fear grips our hearts or minds go to God who can help you with that fear.
