You, Lord, are all I want! You are my choice, and you keep me safe. You make my life pleasant, and my future is bright. I praise you, Lord, for being my guide. Even in the darkest night, your teachings fill my mind. I will always look to you, as you stand beside me and protect me from fear.
Psalm 16:5-8
The temptation to fear is everywhere in today's world. The list of things to fear seems to get longer every day. Terrorism, fatal diseases, tragic accidents, crumbling economies, oppressive governments and religious persecution are everywhere today.
If your life being a pleasant one is dependent on none of those things upsetting your peace and earthly security, then you will be terribly disappointed.
There is only one way to stand calmly and serenely in this world of turmoil and trouble. And that path to a pleasant life and a bright future is to give up your citizenship in this world and become a citizen of Heaven. When Jesus is all you want in this life or the next, and His teaching fills your mind, your future will always be bright!
When Jesus stands beside you and you look to Him for everything, He will protect you from fear! Remember that with Jesus in your heart you will never, stand, walk, sit, or ever even be alone!
"Thank you Jesus, for protecting me from fear! There are so many things in this world that make me want to fear, but because You are with me, my future is bright and there is nothing I need to fear! May Your Holy Name be praised forever. Amen."
