Fear is a poor chisel to carve out your tomorrows.
If you're looking at your future from a position of fear, I want to let you know that view is inaccurate and distorted.
The fear may be as a result of a traumatic experience, unrealistic, growing up in a high control home or even genetic predisposition
Regardless of what the cause may be, fear driven people often miss great opportunities because they are afraid to venture out.
Its never a safe thing to glare into the future with the eyes of fear.
Williams Ward gave a clear difference between FAITH and WORRY:
WORRY is faith in the negative, trust in the unpleasant, assurance of disaster and belief in defeat.
Worry attracts negative conditions.
FAITH is the only powerful force that creates positive circumstances.
Stop playing safe, avoiding risks and trying to maintain the status quo. Its never a cool decision.
Fear wants you to run from things that aren't chasing you.
HERE'S A LITTLE TIP TO CURB/OVERCOME FEAR.
Follow this famous advice:
At night, give all your worries and fears to God. He's going to be awake all night anyway.
1Peter 5:7 puts it this way:
Let Him have all your worries and cares, for He is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.
The Bible also said:
Well formed love banishes fear.
Since fear is crippling, a fearful life, fear of death, fear of judgement - is not yet formed in love".
FEAR IS WASTING TODAY'S TIMEBTO CLUTTER UP TOMORROW'S OPPORTUNITIES WITH YESTERDAY'S TROUBLES (Unknown).
