Contemplate
When fear strikes, breathe and relax. Use contemplation. To contemplate comes from “templum”, temple a place, a space for observation. It means not simply to observe, to regard, but to do these things in the presence of God. Fear comes as a fully-formed story with what will happen next. We need to read our fears in God’s presence. Don’t be afraid know that God is with you and invite someone to take a closer look at Christ and the church.
