Isaiah 41:10 (Isaiah 41:10) makes the same move, but it names the fear more directly. God says: "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismaye…

You're asking the fundamental question — and it matters that you're asking it rather than just walking away. Start with what you can actuall…
Not quite in those terms — the Bible doesn't have a category for "faith without feeling" as a virtue to aim for. But it does describe faith …
Yes, directly. And it's not buried in one verse — it's a pattern. Abraham is the main one. God tells him to leave his home and go to a place…
