Anxiety can overwhelm us in our daily lives. Social media, world events, and decision overload through daily activities can amplify our fear. The Lord promises to be our strength and protector. "Fear not" means we have other choices. We can trust the Lord to walk us through the things that overwhelm us by surrendering our fears and the things we cannot control to his care. God is trustworthy and loves us more than we can imagine.
