We're always afraid of something, aren't we? Even those of us who have no reason for fear because of our Faith in Jesus Christ.
Fear of becoming old
Fear of becoming sick
Fear of our parents dying
Fear of not raising children "right"-wanting them to succeed in life, but fearing they may not.
Fear of not having enough money
Fear of losing your job
Fear of not being accepted
Fear of not being loved
Fear of rejection from people
Fear of being vulnerable to others 'cause they may take advantage of us
Fear of failure despite our best efforts
Fear of the unknown...
If we believe in Christ, there should be no fear in us, only security. Life would be more seen as an adventure because of our security in Christ. Whom shall we fear? When we die and we believe in Jesus Christ, we are to go to heaven.
EVERYONE has fear, not everyone is willing to admit to what their fears are.

Sou - when Facebook stopped reminding me, I forgot to check your blog. I just caught up and enjoyed reading your musings. I saw some of my fears in your list above... you're right that God has not given us the spirit of fear. Power, love, and a sound mind instead. Thanks for the reminder!
Right now I have a fear of the "super duty" in Ari's diaper. Ha - J/K. =)
