The Angel Gabriel appeared to give messages to three people or groups in the Nativity Story, and each time the people were afraid. In all three situations he replied by saying, "Fear Not." (Luke 1:13, 1:30, 2:10).
We can be confident that not only does God know us by name, but He is also filled with messages of good tidings of great joy. 2 Timothy 1:7 - "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." I know that when the Lord communicates with us, even when He asks hard things, he brings love, peace, and power.
