Good Monday morning everyone!  Gotta rise and shine!  A new day is here!  A new week is here!  Its gonna be a great one too.  Right?  Gotta keep that positive attitude going. 

Our challenge today is to not let fear grip you.  Fear can destroy your life.  Fear can keep you from being who you should be.  Fear can keep you in torment and fear can cause you mental, physical, and emotional problems.  We have to learn that there is nothing to fear, but fear itself.  Let fear go.  Where there is fear, let bravery come in.  Let boldness arise inside of you.  I pray that if fear has a hold on you, that God will bless you and that you stop letting fear torment your mind.  We are given a SOUND mind.  Not a mind of fear and torment. I have been there.  I know where you are.  You have to overcome the fear that has a hold on you.  I don't know who this challenge may be for, but if you need me, feel free to PM me.  I can't do much, but I can be an ear for you.  Fear is an aweful thing.  LET IT GO!  Don't let fear ruin OR run your life!  I dare you to accept this challenge!

So, who's up this morning?  What cha sippin' on?  I'm loving me some Hazelnut Cream Coffee sent to me by our very own Dayner Dee.  Thanks Dana!  Sure is good coffee.  Sweet of you to think of me. 

Ya'll have a great FEAR FREE day!

Randy,

This is me......And not enough self confidence either......Fear is huge.....Fear of failing, fear of not being a good enough Mother, fear - not going to the flight attendant meeting afraid of them not liking me, etc.  Fear and low confidence......

I will try your challenge today......I'm going to fill out an applicaation today, Lets see if I make it through the front door or if fear takes over.....

Fear is a horrible thing, that's for certain.  I'm the kind of person for whom the fears I harbor seem to come out and HAUNT me at night, when I NEED to be sleeping!  And every little worry, concern, and FEAR is magnified 1000x  in the middle of the night!  I have learned to pray to God to take those fears away from me until daylight, when my more rational mind is able to make sense of them, and create a plan to deal with them when necessary.

That, and a lil' Tylenol PM before bed, has saved me!

Good Morning!  I know exactly what you are talking about.  Fear used to have quite the grip on my life I seemed to fear every moment not knowing what I would be feeling or thinking next.  A year ago the Lord released me from that fear and I have been growing in His love ever since.  I do still have moments of fear, this weekend was one of them and I prayed that the Lord would take them away and help me to be confident that He would carry me through it.  Today is a better day and I know that the Lord will not let harm come to me so long as I trust in Him and do not jump out of His arms and run my own way.  Thank you so much for posting this today!  ~Nicole
