Choosing Faith Over Fear

Fear is a sneaky enemy. He will creep in when we least expect it, attempting to kill our dreams and steal our joy. Fear desires to paralyze us and keep us from doing great things- the things that really matter. It wants us to be small thinkers and live self-centered lives.

A lie we often believe is that fear protects us from failure and pain when it actually perpetuates it. The truth is that once we step out of fear we will walk in freedom to experience things we have never experienced before and live a life outside ourselves and our own small perspectives.

We can choose to live a life of faith, knowing that big things are possible when we step outside of our fears. As we entrust our lives to the design and plan of our Creator and take small steps of faith walking away from fear we will begin to see big things taking place in our small lives. We will become a blessing to those around us in ways we never imagined and begin to make a real difference in the world. What are some ways fear has held you captive? What lies have you been listening to concerning fear? This is a continual process of growth for all of us. Let me encourage you to step out in faith. Sometimes it feels like a leap, but in reality, small consistent steps lead the way to permanent change. What steps of faith can you take today to lead to freedom?
