Mark 5:36

"As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe."
Mark 5:36


I think that we often have doubt creep into our minds about the eventual outcome of a lot of things.  War stresses us out... not to mention financial things, interpersonal things with family and friends, and personal struggles.  Satan keeps trying to tell us that we can't succeed... we're too far gone, or it is too hard to overcome this or that, or we'll never have enough money, time, success... whatever.  ...but God says to us, "Be not afraid, only believe."  Things WILL work out.  Everything will be okay.  Whatever it is, it isn't the end of the world, or even something that should destroy a whole day.  God is there, and he knows what he is doing, and after we have a little trial of our faith, things always work out better than they were before. :)  Today, let's try to listen to God when he tells us not to fear.  With him on our side, nothing is frightening. :)
