Fear Of Flying!
"I sought the Lord, and He heard
me,
and delivered me from all my fears."
Psalm 34: 4
Do you suffer from aerophobia, the fear of flying?
A recent rash of airplane and helicopter accidents
has brought this back into the news.
Flight attendants are prepared to give oxygen to passengers
who have panic attacks. One flight attendant said, “I’ve had
situations where I’d sort of sit in the aisle and hold
someone’s
hand.”
Our lives are full of fear and riddled with anxieties
and phobias. There are a lot of uncertainties in life,
and without Christ we’re left in the chaos of fear.
But our God is a God who delivers. You can ask Him
to
deliver you from all your fears. That’s what the psalmist
did in Psalm 34. He said, “I sought the Lord, and He…
delivered me from all my fears.”
The next verse says, “They looked to Him and were
radiant” (verse 5). How different would
your life be
today if God replaced your fears with radiance?
Ask Him. He knows how to do it!
"We believe every child of God can…learn to live a
liberated life in Christ. We believe there is a peace
of God that surpasses all understanding that will
guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."
Neil T. Anderson
