Take for example, public speaking. The number one fear is the fear of public speaking, even eclipsing the fear of death. All that I do know is that it is. Some people have a fear of heights, or of flying. Others fear crowds, or confined places.
Fear takes many shapes and many forms, and it s part of everyone s life.
Here s something to ponder. Fear is a normal part of life. I used to think that fear was somehow the opposite of faith. As I have already mentioned, I had a terrible fear of speaking in public. In fact, when I first started to go to Bible studies, I was so afraid that they would ask me to read a verse, that I couldn t listen to the lesson, I just trembled.
