Everybody is afraid of something. That’s normal. When your fear becomes obsessive, that’s called a phobia. Some folks are afraid of the dark, some dislike heights. others are terrified of elevators, or cramped spaces, or flying in an airplane, or public speaking.
We try to conquer our fright by focusing on something else. Get your mind off that thing that scares you. Maybe praying could be an effective distraction. Focusing on God and His will for your life is never a bad idea. Most of us need to think more about God anyway, else we will stray from His path and start operating without His influence.
Now that’s really something to be afraid of.
