Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe. Prov. 29:25 (NIV) Many of our worries and concerns are rooted in us looking for our resources from people and places other than God. He alone is the source of our deliverance, strength, power and provision. In Him we should place our hope for all our help, not man. When you fear individuals and their influence you give them more power than they deserve and set yourself up to be caught in a snare. Don’t be intimidated by the tactics or presence of others. Remember who you are and whose you are. Place all your trust in the Master’s hand. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
