You are bound by fear, but in the face of real tragedy, you would be able to say, "It is well." The enemy has his way with you in the realm of the horror that might occur. You are not afraid in the face of real problems in real time, so why grapple with what might be? Let today’s troubles be sufficient and leave tomorrow’s challenges in God's hands (see Matthew 6:34). This is all he asks of you.
God is able to sustain you both in times of extraordinary challenge and also in the face of everyday labors that would seem at times to threaten your ability to cope.
The great antidote for fear is the fact that God is with you. Learn more of what it means to be in the company of the Presence of God and your fears will evaporate. Fear cannot live where He is.
Scripture: "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10).

Perfectly put! Yes, HE is the great antidote. Lord, help me not to "shop" around, coupon clipping my life away - looking for other "treatments." May I straight away dose myself in You, You alone!
