The Jewish festival of Purim starts today. It is from 16th March to 17th March in the year 2022. It’s a celebration of the freedom for Jewish people from certain death. Family and friends gather to celebrate this joyous occasion by feasting, rejoicing and exchanging gifts and food.
Joy has a noise. Gladness can be heard. Victories are loud. Imagine any sporting event. Much rejoicing is heard from supporters of the winning team. Even in the case of individual sports items, the sounds of cheering from the friends and family of the winner is just great to hear.
“Fear not“, is the most frequent expression that God says in the Bible. God told this to Abraham. He assures Mary. He advises the temple priest, Zechariah, father of John the Baptist. God has told this to several people in the Bible. Today, God tells this to many.
