Scared of What?   “Who are you that…live in constant terror every day because of the wrath of the oppressor, who is bent on destruction? For where is the wrath of the oppressor?” [Isaiah 51:12-13]   What are we allowing to trouble and worry us from day to day?   We give more thought to the negative and we forget the awesomeness of God.  WHY DO WE DO THIS?   Because we think of God as if he were far off, while we can see the negative ( is, things, people situations) with our eyes, and we can hear with our ears his intimidating words.    1. So many of our Fears are Unnecessary  “Don’t cross the bridge till you come to it;” but so many people are crossing bridges that don’t even exist. They only exist in the heads.   We are harsher on ourselves than God would ever be.   2. Some people are very troubled by the fear of man.     “If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.” [John 15:19]
