Fear distorts our vision, causing us to see threats that aren't there, just as the disciples mistook Jesus for a ghost when he walked on water. The opposite of faith isn't doubt but fear – while doubts can coexist with discipleship, fear paralyzes us from following Jesus faithfully.
• Scripture commands "do not be afraid" 366 times – one for every day of the year
• Fear looks at circumstances and believes they control our future
• Faith looks at the future with trust that God is in control
• Fear is a spirit, not just a feeling, and doesn't come from God
• Courage is acting on God's word despite being scared
• Jesus' presence dispels fear – "Take heart, it is I"
• We must snatch back trust from circumstances and place it in Jesus
