Monday's Post - Facing Your Fears
Facing your fears can be one of the most liberating things in the world. When Joshua replaced Moses as leader to the Israelites, it was obvious he was afraid; why else would God have to say to him several times, "Be strong and courageous!" (Joshua 1)
Courageous people are still afraid; yet the go on, and face their fears. In Joshua 1:9, we find these words: "Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged." Which reminds me that some fears are external (terrifying), and some are internal (discouraged). Some of our own fears about ourselves stop us as much as fears that are "out there".
Thoughts?

"The size of your fear (problem) isn't really the issue. The issue is this: How big is your God?"
"God is bigger."
