Fear is a natural human emotion, necessary at times for survival, but if we are not careful, it can rule over us, affecting the decisions we make, the relationships we keep, and God's calling upon our lives.

The Bible tells us over and over again "do not fear." But is it really that easy? Thankfully, we don't have to battle fear in our own strength. God has promised us so much more if we will just place our faith in Him.

In our modern fast-paced world, the concept of patience may seem antiquated. However, this is one Biblical virtue that is not only still relevant, but is essential to the Christian life. After all, it is God's patience with us that opened the door to reconcilation with Him, and it is His patience that is leaving the door open to this day to all who would hear His voice and turn their hearts toward Home while there is still time.
