Mighty Savior, fear is a persistent enemy, often striking when I least expect it. Its icy fingers try to grip my heart, but I refuse to be held captive.

You conquered death, defeated sin, and overcame the world. Before You, what is fear but a fleeting shadow? You’ve proven Your power and love time and again. I choose to trust in that love. I choose to believe in Your sovereignty. With every breath, I reject the chains of fear and embrace the freedom of faith.
