It had been drilled into us that to feel fear is to not fully trust God. Whoever made that up has never been beneath a cafeteria table with a tiny thread of someone else's blood trickling onto their leg.

About This Quote

We must learn to trust God more than anything else. Our faith in him is tested on a daily basis. We must believe that God will make things right even when there are many circumstances challenging our faith. We must learn to trust God, because if we don’t, we can fall into a place of fear where we feel worry and fear without trusting the ultimate source of all comfort.We must rely on God and not worry about whether or not we will make it through this difficult time in our lives.
