Have you ever been paralyzed by fear? Well, so have I!  What I have learned in this journey called “life” is to move forward in spite of fear.  I used to have the mindset that fear would leave and then I would be confident.  Or I would allow my fear to increase and my confidence level decrease and then I would not put my heart into what I was attempting to do.  Let me tell you, fear is not your friend and remember God did not give us the spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7 King James Version).  So I challenge you to seek God first and if there is something that He has placed on your heart to do then do it afraid.  Step out on faith and move forward.
