We all want to be accepted, loved and provided for. Through our faith in Christ, His followers know that they have these needs met. Hebrews 11 says that the definition of faith is the manifestation of things we hope for but can't see. The object of your faith determines what you can expect.
I have faith that the sun will rise tomorrow, but the sun can only do so much. I have faith in my wife's love for me, but her provision for me is limited. I trust in Jesus for eternal life. According to John 3:36 He can provide that. If I have eternal life then there isn't much in this current life that can truly harm me. Now, that should inspire boldness.
