Facing Fear 2
He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."
Genesis 3:10 NIV
Fear, apart from the holy fear of God, entered the world at the fall of man. Prior to the sin of Adam and Eve they had no fear. They didn�t fear for their safety, or for how they would provide for their family. They trusted God because of their deep, intimate relationship with their creator. After sin entered the world, fear was ushered in also.
The fact that you are afraid, therefore, should be no surprise. If you are facing something unknown, or something you know is bigger than you, you can expect fear to be a natural reaction.
So, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid to admit the fear? That� okay�.really�it�s even understandable. We live in a scary, mixed up world and fear is the result of that. I want to encourage you, however, to live counter-cultural. (That�s the way believers are to live anyway.) Be brave! Admit you are scared! It may the first step to finding the faith you need to be obedient to God�s call on your life.
