Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Those not in power are left wondering what is going to happen next. Where is the world heading? Is ISIS really going to attack our home next? What will happen if that does happen? What do we do?


In times of fear, it is important to remember that God is in control. Trust in God and your fear will fade.

Here are five bible verses to help when fear and terror strikes:

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7


"God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea." Psalm 46: 1-2

"When you lie down, you will not be afraid; Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet. 25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror, Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes; 26 For the Lord will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being caught." Proverbs 3:24-26


"So we may boldly say: "The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" Hebrews 13:6


"And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." Matthew 10:28
