Fear not

His Word

"In prayer, be sure to get your feet on a promise; it will give you purchase enough to force open the gates of heaven and to take it by force! When once you can lay hold of a promise, you have leverage with God which enables you to count upon the fulfillment of your petition. God cannot back from His plighted word." - F. B. Meyer

Focused on Christ

Hebrews 12:2-3 The Message (MSG) 12 2 Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we’re in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he’s there, in the place of honor, right alongside God. When you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item, that long litany of hostility he plowed through. That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!

Weak

"Let me fill you up with my presence: I in you, and you in Me. My power flows most freely into weak ones aware of their need for me." - Sarah Young, Jesus Calling. 

A Change of Perspective

"When we focus on God and all He is, our perspective changes, our faith grows, and peace begins to settle over our bankrupt souls as we look to Him. Thankfulness begins to flow in the place where desperation resided." - Gail Rodgers

To be thankful

Colossians 2:6-7 New International Version (NIV) Spiritual Fullness in Christ 6  So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord,  continue to live your lives in him, 7  rooted  and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught,  and overflowing with thankfulness.
