Fear
This post is for you. If you are a person who is struggling with fear. Fear of failure, fear of losing something, someone, whatever it is.
We can't deny this fear is a very powerful force. If given an opportunity, fear can creep in and cripple the soul. That is why it is so common to find people who struggle with insecurity and lack of trust today. There is always a root to the problem. Be it, family background or terrible past experiences. But one thing i learnt in the past few years of my life. Fear will always be there, it will always pop up and stand in your way.
There is two ways to handle fear. First, the most common and popular way people choose- RUN! As far as you can! Try avoiding it. Hide from it. It is sad, but true that people struggle with this vicious cycle. And the worst part is, they never ever get out of it.
So how then do we ever overcome our fears? There is only one way. Faith. Fear has no power in the atmosphere of faith. Where there is faith, fear has to flee. Just like where there is light, darkness is dispelled. Faith is confidence, knowing that fear only has power if you let it.
-Fear creeps in and cripples the soul, Faith in Love cast our all fear!
2 Tim 1:7 (NKJV)
7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
