| Fear |
| |

He who loves God is not afraid: ‘In love there is no fear,’ writes the Apostle John. ‘Perfect love,’ he goes on, ‘casts out fear because fear has to do with punishment and whoever is afraid is not perfected in love’ (1 John 4:18).

| Fear |
| |
|
In the face of the ample and diversified panorama of human fears, the word of God is clear: He who ‘fears’ the Lord is ‘not afraid…He who fears God is calm even in the midst of storms, because God, as Jesus has revealed to us, is a Father who is full of mercy and goodness.

| Fear |
| |
|
The fear of God, which the Scriptures define as the 'beginning of true wisdom,' coincides with faith in God, with the sacred respect for his authority over life and the world. Being 'without the fear of God' is equivalent to putting ourselves in his place, feeling ourselves to be masters of good and evil, of life and death. But he who fears God feels interiorly the security of a child in the arms of his mother: He who fears God is calm even in the midst of storms, because God, as Jesus has revealed to us, is a Father who is full of mercy and goodness. He who loves God is not afraid.
