Isa. 41:10 NLT. DONT BE AFRAID. I AM WITH YOU . Confront Your Fear ! There are different kinds of fear. Theres the kind that warns you to stay away from fire. Theres the kind that cultivates respect for God. When you fear God, you dont have to fear anything else. Theres fear that make you feel helpless ; sometimes its rooted in parental criticism or a bullys threats, and although its groundless , it still haunts you . Theres the fear of failing, which if left unchallenged becomes the father of failure. Job said.What I feared has come upon me (Job 3:25NIV). Theres fear of the unknown where your imagination runs amok. What if you never meet the right person, or you lose your job, or the biopsy confirms the worst? Over and over in His Word God says, Dont be afraid.... I am with you. Life and faith always insist on moving on-and I cannot move forward without leaving something behind . The trapeze artist must let go of one trapeze at precisely the right moment and hover in the void before grabbing the other. Faith calls us out of our comfort zone...to learn new skills and skills and minister in different ways. But we get uptight. We think ,What if God asks me to do something I cant do? Or I dont have the strength , wisdom,or faith? If you were relying on your own rescources , youd be in trouble . But the fact is,God...knew you and chose you(1Peter1:2. NLT). Every time you meet a new challenge He strengthens you by proving that He not only supplies the tools, but is responsible for the outcome . Amen
