Don’t let fear control you

Letters

CONSIDER the following story: A wise man met “Plague” on the way and asked: “Plague, where are you going?
Plague replied: “I am going to the city, I need to kill 5,000 people there.”
A few days later, the wise man met Plague again and asked: “You said you’d kill 5,000 people in the city, but you ended up killing 50,000, what happened?”
Plague scolded the wise man: “No, I didn’t, I killed only 5,000 and the rest died of fear.”
The moral of this story is not to allow fear to grip your life.
Fear is a lethal weapon that Satan uses to bring destruction to humanity.
We should not allow fear to negatively affect us in the midst of the uncertain Covid-19 pandemic.
Fear has the potential to torment and paralyse anyone spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically.
Fear is the opposite of faith.
A sound mind is an awakened mind of a person who thinks right and does the right thing at the right time at the right place as a lifestyle.
