Hebrews 13:6 (NRSV) So we can say with confidence, The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can anyone do to me?
What an amazing statement! One do not fear Scripture for each day of the year.
There's a task for someone who wishes to dig into the Scriptures!
In the meantime, do not be afraid, little flock but replace ALL fear with rejoicing!
Amen
