Don't Worry Be Happy

There is nothing like a good crisis to increase my energy and remind me how much I need God.- Anne Christian Buchanan

“fear not” is the most repeated command in all of Scripture. Of everything commanded by God, the prophets, the apostles, angels, and others, “fear not” shows up more often than anything else. This communicates at least two very important things. First, the most common human condition is something like fear and anxiety. And second, it is the emotion or reaction to life that is least warranted for we belong to him.

Is there a more compelling and powerful verse than "I have called the by thy name and thou art mine"?

God created us in our mother's womb and he loves us with an "evelasting love"

God is the most powerful entity ever what have we to fear?

God just does not give us the command without any support behind it, He tells us why we should not be afraid. He says in verse 11, “For I am with you to save you.” “I am with you”:

those have to be the four most encouraging words in Scripture.
