"The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"
This is a logical deduction of every faithful churched Christian. If Christ is our light and salvation--how can anything or anyone hurt us? Therefore, why should we fear anything (but God)? If the Lord is our life's strength, then what enemy can possibly stand up to Him? There-
fore, why should the foe be feared?
Believers are the only ones with enough sense to know that there are dangers in the world. But ironically, they are also the only ones who have no cause to fear them. Let us trust God for all things; and worry about nothing.
