Fear is a terrible thing. A horrible ache in our souls. An invisible goblin that haunts our footsteps. In the depths of our humanity, fear is hard to push away. Yet at times it would seem we do not want to. We cling to our fears. We nurse them tenderly till they become monsters of fantastic proportions. We let them enslave us.
  And why? Do we think that God is not good enough. Do we fear we will seem simple in the eyes of others for our faith that He will make all things new. Faith is hard. To trust that God holds in the palm of His hands the world that is spinning our of our control. But fear is harder still. We fear when we try to control this life which is too big a burden for our tiny hands to bear.
  To fear and to have faith are choices. We must choose to try and take control of a life too big for us. Or we must trust there is a good God, who will never let the world leave the palm of His hands.
