“I could’ve missed this if I listened to the wrong voice.” 

I want to reflect on this quote I heard last night. Whenever I write a blog I usually write it all out on paper first and process it over and over, but that is not the case with this one. This one is directly from my heart. 

Last night I went to a concert with a very sweet friend. We had the amazing opportunity to sit next to some really awesome gals and make friends with them. I was in a room with over 10,000 people who showed up to worship Jesus. If you have never been in a room filled with Jesus lovers I highly recommend you look into it. It is amazing. The lead singer in the band said the quote that I listed above. It hit me. I think I have been listening to the wrong voice.

That voice for me is fear. 

I am going to be honest. I am scared of a lot of things. I never thought I was a fearful person, but this year God revealed to me that I struggle with fear. It holds me back. When I tell people this they are very surprised by it. That is because I cover it up really well. It takes forever for me to come to reality with the fear in my life. 

The fear in my life is not from the voice of truth. Fear is a liar. There is no fear in love. There is no fear in my purpose. There is no need for me to fear. I was not put on this earth to live a life of fear. Fear is a daily surrender for me, but I am laying it all down. Every single fear, from the small fears to the really big fears. 

That quote is so important to me because I don’t know about you, but I do NOT want to miss a move of God because I have been listening to the voice of fear instead of the voice of truth. I don’t know what that voice is for you, but if it is not the voice of truth (JESUS!!!!!!!) then I encourage you to reflect. We are in this together people. I am human and I just want to be real with you. There is nothing to be ashamed of. Fear has no hold on us. HE HAS ALREADY WON.

Who are you listening to? Psalm 118:6 Isaiah 41:10
