Living in Christ vs Living in Fear

- Biblereading -

This week as school ends for many Belgian school kids many of my weekly biblestudies have gone on hold for the summer. One of my study contacts, "Z", has a son that since school is out would make for a difficult study time, and she is going to be traveling out of the country for a month.

I mention Z because I want you to be praying for her. Eventhough you dont know her name I believe God is workin in her. For the past 9 months we have been reading through the life of Christ reading bit by bit out of Luke. Z has had a lot of trouble in her past, and lives in a life of fear and has no one she can trust. Many of our studies I tried to focus on what she is thankful for, and what she can hold on to. But her fear keeps her short sighted. Pray that Christ will be the one she holds onto who provides true comfort and peace.

Where do you think the role of fear intersects with the Christian life? Does it have a place, or do real Christians fear nothing?
