Courage when you're afraid
Fear can paralyze us, keeping us from living the abundant life God intends. But throughout Scripture, God repeatedly tells His people: "Do not be afraid." He does not leave us to face our fears alone—He goes before us, stands beside us, and promises that nothing can separate us from His love. Let these verses strengthen your heart with holy courage.
