Faith Opposite of Fear

Faith opposite of fear, a required tool to open the door to become God’s faithful servant.  This Book of Mormon scripture gives us more insight into faith:
…men began to exercise faith in Christ; and thus by faith, they did lay hold upon every good thing and thus it was until the coming of Christ.  And after that he came men also were saved by faith in his name; and by faith, they become the sons of God. And as surely as Christ liveth he spake these words unto our fathers, saying: Whatsoever thing ye shall ask the Father in my name, which is good, in faith believing that ye shall receive, behold, it shall be done unto to you….  Moroni 7:25-26

Doubt and Faith cannot exist at the same time:

….For whatever may be their belief or their opinion, it is a matter of doubt and uncertainty in their mind; and where doubt and uncertainty are, there faith is not, nor can it be. For doubt and faith do not exist in the same person at the same time. So persons whose minds are under doubts and fears cannot have unshaken confidence, and where unshaken confidence is not, there faith is weak. And where faith is weak, the person will not be able to contend against all the opposition, tribulations, and afflictions which they will have to encounter in order to be heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ Jesus. But they will grow weary in their minds, and the adversary will have power over them and destroy them….Lecture on Faith 6
I enjoyed Darren’s perspective of Fears versus Faith in his creative video.  Remember faith, the opposite of fear is only present if there is no fear.  If fear is present, there is no faith. If faith is present, there is no fear.
