What gives you the heebie-jeebies when you even think about doing it? Public speaking? Peeking over the edge of the grand canyon? Going to the dentist? Or perhaps your fears are more hidden. Buried under self-doubt,old wounds,or a lack of faith resulting in a fear of failure,commitment,or rejection. Whatever your deepest fears may be, they're holding you back from doing and becoming all that God has planned for you before you get to heaven.
Before you can face your fears,you need to know what they are. Ask God to help you get to the root of what you're afraid of.if specific fears don't pop into your mind,consider what stresses you out or makes you angry. These can be secondary signs of fear that can lead back to their source, If you are willing to give them an honest look. Once you know what your fears are,its time to have a faceoff. This doesnt mean you have to jump out of a plane if you are afraid of heights or purchase a pet tarantula if you are arachnophobic. Lean on God and take baby steps. Call the dentist's office to schedule a cleaning. Hold on to a friend's hand and take a quick peek off a balcony. Try something at which you'll probably fail, that no one other than you and God will ever know about.
When you face your fears, you gain a greater freedom to be able to do whatever God asks of you in this life. God often asks people to do things they fear. If you have any doubts just read the old testament. However,God knows people rely on Him most when they know they can't accomplish alone what lies ahead. That's what God wants to remind you of every day until you come face-to-face with Him in heaven. He is near and ready to help. He is greater than anything you fear.
