The Lord is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid?

Psalms 27:1 NIV

The Bible speaks about fear over and over again. We are told to fear not. Here in Psalms we are asked “whom shall I fear?”

The interesting thing is that I have been pummeled with these scriptures about fear this week. They are on my phone, on the radio broadcasts, on my flip calendar, and in my personal scripture reading. Why is that? I think it’s a message.

I don’t know about you, but I am afraid of something every day and quite frequently during the day. It is not the fear we associate with gory movies or the fear that comes from fright or from being startled. The fear I speak of is the fear of failure, of being accepted, of making a mistake, of irreparable damage, or of disappointment. This is the fear that holds me back and likely hold you back too.
