The most frequent command in the Bible is:  "Don’t be afraid." The irony of this surprising command is that, though it’s what we all really want to hear, we have as much difficulty, if not more, in obeying this command as any other.  We all cherish fear so closely that we find we can’t shed it even when we’re told to do so. -N.T.
