Given the option, I'd pick the one that didn't involve flaming darts headed my way.
But we don't seem to have been given that option. Seeing as that's the world we seem to live in, we can make a choice where we have a defense against all the flaming darts. Not some, but all. Instead of choosing fear, we can choose faith, which acts as a shield, because when we place our faith in the one who is stronger than the enemy, then we need not fear, though those flaming darts get hurled our way. We cannot be taken from the hand of the one who has come to save.
Faith doesn't mean flaming darts don't get sent our direction by the enemy. Faith does mean we can boldly stand in their face and look to the one who is both able and willing to save.
