As Jesus instructed his Apostles to go on a mission, he told them not to be fearful or afraid of anyone, and that He was sending them out to preach the Good News and to teach them (Mt 10). 
We have been taught about Truth, to boldly preach and to make known the Gospel of Christ to everyone. The Lord said “Do not be afraid” and He also promised, “I will be with you always.” This promise, not only gave the Apostles courage, but it also gives us the courage to carry out His mission to the world. When we are afraid or fearful, this will then increase our failures in carrying out our tasks. The light of Jesus dispels the darkness of fear.
We’re afraid of the unknown and worry about uncertainties. We always have doubts and struggles over faith. Whenever we face fear, we need to realise that God is near us. We should place our trust in God and in His presence too.
God is always with us and He is our Warrior. He gives us great confidence to “fight the good fight,” in order to win. Be courageous then, to stand for the Truth, and do not fear anyone.
Let us count on God’s great love for us to enable us to do what He asks of us – “Lord, in Your great love, answer me,” (Ps 68).
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY.
