Facing Fear and Trusting God
Greetings beloved family and friends, may I ask a question?
When comes to facing fear, how do you handle it?
What is Fear?
Fear is an emotion induced by perceived danger or threat, which causes physiological changes and ultimately behavioral changes, such as fleeing, hiding, or freezing from perceived traumatic events
How can we deal with it?
Every time we face up to a fear, its hold over us gets weaker.
Here are some steps you can try:
Relax, be calm
If you’re in the grip of feeling scared about something, It’s really hard to think clearly. Take time out to calm down
Talk about it
Try talking about your fear with someone you know and trust. I
Talking about your fears often shrink them down to a size we can deal with.
Take small steps
Think about how you could break it down into more manageable chunks.
Turn your fear to Trusting God
When we are faced with the fear of the unknown the best place to find comfort is in the presence of the Most High God.
Remember His word in Psalm 18:6
In my distress, I called upon the LORD and I cried to my God for help. From His temple, He heard my voice, and my cry for His help reached His ears.
Also Psalm 50: 15 says “Call on me in a day of trouble; I will rescue you, and you will honor me.”
Trust Him today and He will comfort you.
God bless you
