Fear Not!

What is more helpless than a child without its mother's hand! Reader, what is more helpless than you without Christ! You can neither stand nor walk alone; but "God, who takes hold of your right hand, says to you: Do not fear; I will help you!"

He will help you . . . against sin; against Satan;  against the world; against your own evil heart.

He will help you . . . when you are weary; when you are downcast; in the time of trial; and in the hour of temptation.

He will help you . . . to understand; He will help you to pray; He will help you to fight;  He will help you to avoid the snares; He will help you to despise the vanities of this poor world.  Ah, my fellow-sinner, this help is promised, because you need it all.

 

What a world of temptation, sin, and danger — what a world of darkness and confusion you live in! There is none to help you — none to teach you — none to lead you on your way — but Jehovah. Do not be afraid! He will hold you by the right hand, saying, "I will help you!"
