"Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry. Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not. O LORD, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul, thou hast redeemed my life."
- Lamentations 3:56-58

Dear Friends,
God hears our faintest cry and responds to each one. How beautiful to know that the Lord supports us in advance of our concerns with the assurance that we do not have to fear.
Fearless! This is the life that we can have in Christ. Are we successful each day living without fear? No, because we are human. Yet, the scriptures remind us that in each situation we can choose to cast our care, our fear, our apprehension and any doubt on the Lord. He invites us to do so. It is in Him and through Him, that we can live without fear.
"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:" - I Peter 5:6-8
"Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.We love him, because he first loved us." - I John 4:17-19
" All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." - St. Matthew 11:27-29
Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry
He will answer by and by
Now when you feel
a little prayer wheel turning
And you know a little fire is burning
You will find a little talk
with Jesus makes it right
