“You, O Lord, will protect us; you will guard us from this generation forever.” Ps 12:7
There is a popular gospel song that states “tragedies are commonplace.” If we give into this reality, we will allow fear to cripple us and stop us from enjoying the beauty of life. Instead, when faced with fear, we must declare like the psalmist that the Lord will protect us. God is with us; He is our shield. Therefore, you do not have to be afraid.
