Who of us can say we’ve no fear in our lives? With the threat of layoffs, foreclosures, plant closings, and loss of health, everyone has something they fear. As a Michigan resident, I watch helplessly as families flee for other states. Why? Because they can’t find work. They are running for security, hope, something to behold to that says, “It’ll be alright.”
Max Lucado’s newest release “Fearless” addresses these issues and more. In sharing his own personal experience, and a hefty amount of Scripture, he offers another option to living in fear of calamity; he offers hope, courage, and an Advocate we can turn to.
My own fears ran for cover through the revelation of truth in this book. Life is NOT out of control.
One of my favorite quotes: “Everything will work out in the end. If it’s not working out, it’s not the end,” perhaps you’ve heard this before. It is a clear reminder and an encouragement, “Don’t give up! There’s help.”
This book reminds me of a great hymn, “Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace.”
It is possible to have a life overcoming fear.
