How Do You Overcome Fear During Fearful Times

Aren’t we living in scary times? Have you felt fearful when turning on the news and you begin hearing about all the turmoil that our world is facing?

Our human nature desires security and instinctively fights for survival. We long for peace. We seek health, happiness, financial security and safety.  We MUST have food and shelter at the very least.

So what do we do while we’re living in times when we begin to fear the lack of protection for our children and our families? How do we except the vast changes in our modern society?
