There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
1 John 4:18
All kinds of fears plague women in today’s world. Some of the major ones they share with us are:
* fear of being alone
* fear of the dark
* fear of abandonment
* fear of failure
* fear of disapproval or ridicule
* fear of financial lack
* fear of injury or violence
* fear of cancer or disabling sickness
* fear of suffering and pain
* fear of death
* fear of losing a relationship
* fear of losing independence
* fear of the future
Fear can beneficial when it warns us of impending danger, but when taken to extremes, and coupled with worry, it quickly becomes a heavy bondage.
