Jesus promised his deciples they'd be completely fearless and obsurdly happy.
If you're not quite there yet maybe you have some sin/ bad intentions that you must completely turn from? Keep reading the Word and live for love and truth. Be selfless.
He will bless you with the knowledge and whatnot that you need to be fearless. And I always say: Once you realize that you CAN really be fearless, you can't help but be obsurdly happy!
This comes with knowledge of how insignificant the physical world and your little posessions really are.

Just realized I already replied up there^ The threads kinda old, but you never know who may need this and new views are always good.

Hey Mark...
I am wondering where you found Jesus promising the disciples that they would be completely fearless and absurdly happy....
Not disputing you here just wondering where that is written!
I know He promised some things .....like if the world hated me it will hate you......and there will be persecutions......etc. but I don't remember reading anything that states that disciples will know no fear and be happy. If you mean when we go home (heaven) then cool......I understand what you mean!
