“The wicked is a very coward, and is afraid of everything; of God, because He is his enemy; of Satan, because he is his tormentor; of God’s creatures, because they, joining with their Maker, fight against him; of himself, because he bears about with him his own accuser and executioner.

The godly man, on the contrary, is afraid of nothing; not of God, because he knows Him as his best Friend, who will not hurt him; not of Satan, because he cannot hurt him; not of afflictions, because he knows they come from a loving God, and end in his good; not of the creatures, since ‘the very stones in the field are in league with Him;’ not of himself, since his conscience is at peace.”
