For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Tim. 1:7) We must not get so caught up in world events that we allow fear to creep into our spirit, heart or mind. Fear robs us of our faith. Our thoughts must stay on Christ and things above. Yes, we live in this fallen world, but we must continue to be a light and remember we are only passing through.
