“Mommy, come quick! There’s a monster in my room!” cried Mark. When Mother came she tried to tell Mark that there wasn’t any such thing as a monster, but he still seemed a little afraid.
“Mark, Jesus is here with you. He won’t let anything hurt you. He loves you very much,” Mother said. “Isn’t Jesus afraid of anything?” asked Mark.
“Oh, no. He doesn’t have to be afraid of anything. Don’t you remember when He told the big wind and the big waves to be still, and they became calm? They had to do what He said because He is God’s Son. So you don’t have to be afraid of monsters or anything else with Jesus here to take care of you.”
“Okay, Mommy, you can go downstairs,” said Mark. “Jesus will take care of me.” He snuggled down with his blanket and went off to sleep.
Do you feel afraid sometimes? Just remember that Jesus is with you all the time, and He tells those who love Him, “I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.... The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear.” Hebrews 13:5,65Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 6So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. (Hebrews 13:5‑6).
