Deep fears often leave us feeling defenceless and in danger of being defeated. Fear can be crippling, but how do we face fear? How do we overcome it? Proverbs 14:26-27 shows us that we overcome fear by fearing the Lord. Fearing God above everything else puts things into perspective. Our sorrows and troubles suddenly have meaning and purpose, even though we may not see it. All our fears and anxieties become overcome by the One who reigns sovereign over every detail of our lives.
