Too often, the fear of failure boxes us in.
“What if they don’t like me?” “What if I’m not good enough?” “What if I screw this project up?” “What if this isn’t God’s will?” “Why is this happening to me?” “What if they don’t like what I have to say?” “What if this hurts?”
The difficulty is stepping out and dancing with the fear, because to some extent, everyone has a fear and there will always be the fear of the unknown.
Understand that staying inside the box is easy and comfortable, but that is all you’ll ever have, the box. While those brave enough to confront the fear, get to dance wherever they choose.
It’s true what you say. I’ve lived most of my life stepping outside of my fear. It’s just that here in the last 6 years, fear has tried to take over my life. I need (we all) a Savior who is much bigger than fear!! And thank God we have that!! JESUS!!
