Fear Not In these times, there is plenty to be afraid of , if we only look around. It seems that every day the news media have yet more bad new to tell: wars, disease, terrorism, drought, social unrest, and more. Some people have stopped using clock radios to wake up in the morning, preferring a jarring buzzer to the even more jarring morning news. What more do we need before we realize that we are finite creatures, and while there is much we can do to make our world better, ultimately there is a lot that is simply not within our grasp? To this our loving God says, “Be strong, fear not!” We must do what we can to make our world a better and safer place, but we must also realize our limits and that our ultimate safety is in the hands of God. We can be com-forted by the realization that God loves us beyond comforted by the realization that God loves us beyond measure, and will give us every help in our efforts to make our world a living and safe place for everyone.

No Teman En estos tiempos, hay muchas rezones para temer, con tan solo mirar a nuestro alrededor. Tal parece que cada día los mediosde comunicación tienen máa malas noticias que anunciar: guerras, enfermedades, terrorismo, sequía, disturbios socials, y mucho más. Algunas personas han dejado de usar los radios desperta-dores prefiriendo ser despertados por la sacudida de la alarma chillona y no de las malas noticias matutinas. ¿ Qué más necesi-tamos para darnos cuenta de que somos criaturas limitadas, y aunque hay mucho que podemos hacer para que simplemente no está a nuestro alcance? Para esto, nuestro amoroso Dios nos dice: “¡ Ánimo! No teman.” Debemos hacer todo lo que esté a nuestro alcance seguro, pero también debemos reconocer nuestros límites y que nuestra seguridad absolute está en man-nos de Dios. Nos puede server de Consuelo la relización de que Dios nos ama sin medida, y nos dará toda la ayuda necesaria para hacer de nuestro mundo un lugar acogedor y seguro para todos.
