A Gracious Blessing for the Fearful

Sometimes we get into a situation that tempts us to fear the future. We know, intellectually, that the future is uncertain, but we fear it anyway. We are afraid about our finances, our job, our children, our relationships, our health, and so many other things. The Bible tells us do not to fear, but trust in the Lord, to use biblical wisdom, and think on what is good and right. Jacob, as we will discover, became very much afraid of what he thought might happen. He was so afraid, he made many sinful choices.
