OVERCOMING YOUR FEARS WITH GOD'S WORD  

   Most people have some kind of thing that scares them. I once was scared of Aliens, their big black eyes, and gruesome small bodies gave me the willies.

 I remember one night I woke up hearing all kinds of scary noises and right away I thought about Aliens. But I remembered the scripture I had memorized; "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind", and eventually I went back to sleep.  

The next time something scared me at night, I immediately began to say this verse over and over and others like it about God's amazing promises, and eventually this fear went away! I no longer fear Aliens! Why, because God is on my side, and He is on your side when you allow Him to be.
