God sends little remedies all the time and we rarely notice. Sometimes it can take the shape of conversation with a new friend or a subpar in-flight movie on an airplane. Fear is a great teacher, but God is a better one.
There will come a day—possibly even tomorrow—when I’ll be unsteady on my feet, cautious, afraid, just as I was when I learned to walk. But I’ll put one foot in front of the other, armed with a quote that has been credited to Joan of Arc: “I fear nothing for God is with me.”
