Gospel: Mt 10:24-33 (July 9, 2011)

I noticed this exhortion " Do not be afraid" is reapeated three times in today's gospel. such repetition seeks to demonstrate that God will be in charge of those who follow Him. he has made a promise and He will faithfully carry His promise. if we live in this constant awareness of his abiding presence, all our fears will gradually fade away. We just have to allow God to be God for us. No amount of human effort, can effect change and transformation without God by our side. So now I realized, I should flee from the house of fear and head to the house of God's love where even a strand of my hair will be left unharmed. I will believe in his promise and FEAR NO MORE!!!
