Be Fearless

Fear. This four letter word defines the greatest battle I faced for the longest time. I lived in a state of perpetual fear. I was fearful of what others thought of me, fearful of losing my friends, fearful of cancer, fearful of death, fearful that I would not finish college, fearful I wouldn't find a girl who could love me for me, fearful of failure, and even fearful of others letting me down. The list goes on. There were so many things, thoughts, ideas, and situations I feared. For the longest time I struggled with this, but then I came to realize that every thing, thought, situation, or person I feared actually had no way of hurting me and nobody had any intention of thinking any of the things towards me that I feared. The majority of our fears are created in our heads, and thats all they are; just thoughts and silly imaginations. Once I realized this, I was able to have a completely different outlook on life. No longer did I isolate myself out of fear of what others thought or said. Not to mention, that I also found inspiration through the Bible. A powerful verse which greatly strengthened me was 2 Timothy 1:7, "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."

I realized God had given me a spirit of power and a sound mind, and fear was just a distraction.

I don't know what your fears are. Maybe you fear that you will never walk again, or maybe you fear nobody will accept you, or people will make fun of or mock you. Maybe you fear your friends/family will dessert you. Well I have news for you. Everything we fear in this life usually never comes to pass. Most of your fears are just thoughts which have krept in your life. If we live in a state of continual fear, our lives will slow down, and we won't be able to accomplish all we've been placed on this earth to accomplish. Fear clouds your vision, yor thought life, and even your passions. I challenge you today to not let fear hinder you from accomplishing your dream, life goal, or what you've been placed on this earth to do. Be FEARLESS!

Maybe you have questions about how I overcame fear, or how God helped me overcome fear and has given me a spirit of power.
