Do Not Be Afraid

Do Not Be Afraid, for I am with you. Genesis 26:24

This week after Easter Sunday, we are reading the stories of the disciples fearing what was next, wondering what happened, and discovering that Jesus’ body was gone.

So many questions were unanswered.

We are presently living in time when we are sheltering in our homes and wondering what is next. We are afraid of so many things. The disciples’ fears went away when Jesus appeared to them and said, “Peace with you.” We too must seek Jesus during these times to calm us and take away our fears.
