Fear?

I can honestly say that until the last couple of years I did not have the experience or sensation of fear. (The only exception would be when we had to deal with some very serious illnesses in two of our children, when my fear was for them.)

But with my approaching and reaching my mid-50s, I have to admit that I occasionally experience some fear about various things. I would guess that it is normal and comes with the territory.

The occasional fears I experience are not overwhelming; they don't affect my faith in God; and they don't affect my ability to function. But every now and then it's there.

New seasons of life: new experiences.
