I watched a YouTube snippet this morning of Kris Valliton talking about overcoming fear. It was SO encouraging.
If there’s something that you’re afraid of, just doing it might be the only way to conquer that fear. He said: If it scares the hell out of you, good! Hell wasn’t supposed to be in you in the first place!
Haha!
Another thing he said was this: If you were 10x more courageous, what would you be doing different? If it’s anything other than what you’re doing right now, you’ve already let fear win.
Kris also made the point that we might think that fear only hinders us, but our lives as believers are so intertwined that by letting fear keep you from something, you are keeping something from so many other people.
A whole nation was promised the promised land, but the number of people who heard that promise and entered were two. All because fear hindered the Israelites from following the Holy Spirit.
“Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers.” – 1 Timothy 4:16
