In fear & faith.

"Fear, uncertainty, and discomfort are your compasses toward growth." -Anonymous

Guys, I have been really fearful, uncertain, and uncomfortable lately. So I suppose I'm growing :) 

I'll be honest, I've had a pretty rough go of it the past couple of months. I have not felt quite like myself. I have made some decisions that were not incredibly healthy for me emotionally. But I was sitting in church last week with my husband and my group home girls, with nothing out of the ordinary being said or done at all, just a typical testimony meeting... and it suddenly hit me. All of these issues that I have been dealing with have one common factor: FEAR. And all of those decisions that I wished I would have made differently? Those were all made from a position of fear. A fearful person made those decisions, which is why the result was... less than ideal.

But the thing about fear is, it can be overcome. And there's only one way to do it: Replacing the fear with FAITH. That is such a beautiful word. Faith. It is powerful, it is hopeful, and it is the exact opposite of fear. So, obviously, it's something that I need a lot more of in my life right now! I am choosing to today to replace my fear with faith!
