The fear of failing can be absolutely paralyzing!
I cannot tell you the countless hours I’ve wasted my life away agonizing over looking stupid, afraid of falling flat on my face to windup being labeled a failure. Not only have I used up valuable mental energy consumed with fear, it also sucks the life out of me physically.
I remember waking up from many weeks in a coma on life support. Nothing on my body worked. My muscles were extremely atrophied and no matter how much I thought with my mind, I can move my arms and legs, nothing would happen. At the time, those were some of the worst days of my entire life!
However, looking back today I can proudly say those were actually some of the best days of my life!
Why?
Because I learned to push through the fear and fight for what God wanted for my life. God not only had plans for me to walk again, but actually to run 13.1 miles a year later!
To overcome fear, it comes down to one little word…CHOICE. We have a choice to make. Believe the lie that we are powerless or believe the absolute truth; we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength. Philippians 4:13
Remember, just because we “feel” something doesn’t always mean it’s true!
What choice are you going to make today? Believe the truth? Believe the lie?
