Confidence. One word. Not easily achievable for us humans. We ask God daily to give us confidence but we never get it. Why? Probably because we don't listen to His suggestions or because, He will give us the confidence in His own time. We usually lack the confidence to stand up for ourselves or be able to make our own decisions for fear of the requisitions of others or of the consequences that will come forth. Well, guess what? Actions will always have consequences in life. We will always make mistakes in our decisions but the key to everything is owning up to them and not letting them define you. I have been letting the fear of letting both God and my family down at both the church and failing at my job get me down for too long. I have been too stone hearted for too long that I barely feel the love of God in my life and in my heart. I don't want that anymore!!! Do you?!?! Get up and speak to God! Yell out that you are a child of God! Stand up to the Devil! Don't let fear win!!! I Am Done with Fear!!! "Be of good courage, and let us be courageous for our people, and for the cities of our God, and may the Lord do what seems good to Him." - 2 Samuel 10:12 NLT.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. - 2 Timothy 1:7.

Stand up for God and you shall be rewarded. But do not do it because of the reward, for God's kingdom is not for the faint of heart, do it for both God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He loves you and, if you ask Him, He will help you overcome your fears and anxieties, and give you the strength and courage you need to stand up and further His kingdom.

Amen
