Fears

Sometimes our fears can rule our lives. We fear the unknown in life. And sometimes our fears with life takes our focus away from God. We can't seem to focus right or think right. We have a hard time keeping our mind on God because our thoughts are so plagued with our fears and worries to the point where sometimes it can literally kill us. But we can't let depression and fear get to that point, and I know it's hard. I've been there and I know people who have been there and pulled back to being strong and grounded with God.

Different things that occur in our lives can trigger fears like major surgery or major illness like cancer. After something like that your world can be sent into total darkness that you cannot see your own way out. It's at those times that we need to rely not only on the people in our lives but reach out to God, call our: nay cry out to God. You may feel so far away from him, but at the same time this could be the time when you are so close to him. The people around us: our friends, church family, family can help us see that God is there by praying with us, fasting with us, read the bible and discuss it with us and so much more. The people around us could be the best thing to happen to us when we need uplifting.

We cannot let our fears get the best of us. We need to tell them to begone and that they have no power over us because we belong to Jesus. I know that can be hard, but I think after we say it enough and put all the faith we have in it our fears will get smaller and our faith in God will get stronger.
