Fear is such a tricky thing.  The problem is… we, as humans will always have fear of something.  Whether it be a phobia, a decision, a constant pressure… we always have a fear of something.  If you think you don’t, can you honestly tell me that there isn’t SOMETHING in your life or in your thoughts that doesn’t give you that thought of, “I hope that never happens to ME!”?  I, myself, am ridden by fear.  There is so much in my life, right now, that I am not happy with.  But FEAR is keeping me from changing it!  I don’t have the answer…. if I did, I would probably be a gajillionaire!  What I want to explore, though, is how we can over come it.  The tagline to my blog is “persevere through the fear”.  I thought of it when I first started the blog but I didn’t, and still don’t, know how to do it!  But it’s my goal!

So, obviously, this isn’t a live forum.  So I cannot actively ask you what your fears are or help you to overcome them.  What I have learned is that, by writing things down, you can find yourself on the path to overcoming what you are fearful of.  So… pen to paper… what are you scared of?

Me?  I’m scared of the fact that I have to make very big changes to escape the fear that I have.  And I’m scared of making the changes.  I am confident that what I am unhappy with is proof that I have to make changes.  I am scared to tell you exactly what it is that I am scared of because I’m scared that it will cause me to forcibly make the changes before I feel that my family is ready for them!  Before my future investments are ready for them!  Before than my company is ready for them!

How does this relate to you???  What are you unhappy with in your life?  Are you scared to make the necessary changes to make you happy?  I’m sure that you are!  God knows that I am!  So, the bible says to have faith!  To have faith of where you are going before you are even aware of where you are going and, surely, well before you get there.  What happens, though, if your loved ones don’t share your faith!?!?  You know that God’s word tells you to GO!… not to figure out where… and THEN go… but just… to GO!  However, your closest family doesn’t understand that.  The family that you feel matters most in your earthly life…. but they don’t have the same faith?  We pray.  We pray that they could find a way to understand.

I will pray for you and please pray for me that I can step out, in faith, so that I can be happy.

Bye for now,
