When one surveys even from a distance how often and how openly Sacred Scripture speaks of fear and anxiety, an initial conclusion presents itself: the Word of God is not afraid of fear or anxiety. God’s Word enters into this topic with the same mastery that it brings to everything that is characteristically human (and we know humanity only in its fallen state and in the redemption that is underway). For the Word of God, anxiety is not something to be ashamed of, any more than suffering and death are. |
