The Bible contains over 200 verses that deal with the topic of fear. There are some incredible promises. The 23rd Psalm has been consoling people for thousands of years. David, a shepherd, used imagery from his surroundings to comfort his fears. Even in the midst of dark valleys, David pictured God with him, like a shepherd comforting the flock. Bernadette Todd describes how she faces fear nearly every day.

With all of the verses that talk about fear, you know what we do not find? Any place where fear wins. Even when Jesus was just hours away from dying on the cross, His focus was on trust, not fear. Even as He uttered the request for the cup of suffering to be taken away, he quickly said, "Yet I want your will, not mine." He turned to faith in the midst of fears. Bernadette has found freedom from fears through trust. Each new day of the Coronavirus crisis brings a whole new set of fears. Grab hold of the promises from God's Word. Let those be your "go to" way of being comforted in the midst of your fear.

Psalms 23:1-6

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Jeremiah 29:11

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
