Faith is what pushes you forward and lets you experience life to the fullest.
Fear pulls you down.
Faith pushes you up.
Fear takes away joy.
Faith lets you experience joy.
Fear may seem strong and intimidating, but in reality it isn't.
Faith is greater than fear. Faith is stronger than fear.
True faith is found in Christ. Faith is believing in something that is unseen.
Too often, my fear of opinions and of failure hold me back and keep me from doing what God wants me
to do. If it keeps me from doing it, and I don't do it, regret is what happens.
Regret happens when we know that we've missed an opportunity that we should have taken.

We need to get over ourselves. We need to let our faith in God conquer our fear of failure.
It's easier said than done. I know. A lot of things in this world are easier said than done.
Our fears of doing what God asks of us tend to hold us back from doing what God asks of us.
We need to stop thinking about what might happen or go wrong, and just do it and give it to God.
Once we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior, our life is His. We are God's hands and feet in this
world. We are his children. We can choose to obey or disobey.
Disobeying God usually means we just missed an opportunity to grow and be stretched through Him.
But when we actually choose to obey God, we are blessed because of it.
There is a verse in Matthew 5 verse 11. It says, "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you
and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me."
We are blessed when we obey God and if we obey and are insulted and persecuted because of it, we
are also blessed.
Letting our faith conquer our fear is such an amazing feeling. When we have fear about doing something, but know in our hearts that we're supposed to do it, and we do it, we are blessed. If we don't do it,
we've missed out on an opportunity to grow closer to God and depend on Him more.
Dare to let your faith and trust in Jesus Christ be bigger than your fears.
