Faith or Fear-Which one will you choose?

Each time in my life that I have embarked to start a new endeavor there is at some point in the beginning a moment where I feel a cold chilling sting. This sting I am referring to is the fear of failure. Perhaps some of you reading this have never had that problem, and you just go from one business to the next with your chest out conquering the world. This article is NOT for you. There are many people that experience the fear of failure at one point or another in their lives, and some people live with it indefinitely. This article IS for you.

If you do not take ownership of and conquer your fear early on it will debilitate you causing your biggest fears to become a reality. There are a few short truths that I am about to share with you to aid you in your quest of conquering fear. First, you have to accept the fact that Fear is a spirit as the Bible states in 2 Timothy 1:7, “For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, of love and of a sound mind.” The opposite of fear is faith which is also a spirit. In fact, one could define fear as the expectation of something bad whereas faith could be defined as the expectation of something good.

That is an over simplified definition of either term, but let me explain. One individual may be afraid of dogs and when meeting a new dog, is afraid because they are expecting to be bitten, whereas another individual who loves dogs, has faith that the dog will be friendly. You see? Your fear of failure isn’t that you are failing now. It is from the expectation or at least a concern that you will fail, and the fact of the matter is that fear and faith being spirits cannot coexist in the same vessel. You will be in submission to one or the other.

I realize that all of that was deep but the way to cure your fear isn’t deep at all. The thing that cures fear is simple…ACTION cures fear. Whatever you are afraid of, do that thing over and over and you will no longer be afraid of it. If you have a fear of failure then go to work and work hard until the fear goes away. In this case your success would chase fear away. Whichever spirit you submit to will determine the outcome of your expectations. Faith is God’s activator and fear is Satan’s activator. Which one will you choose?

God Bless,
James Boehm

  12. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is required to get set up? I'm assuming having
    a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% certain.

    Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

  15. supermans weakest incarnation base strength is 800000 tons .

    hulks strongest future versions base strength is 150tons and
    that one particular had been doused by extra amounts of radiation and he definitely
    handed hulk hid ass. ho would u say the 70 ton pumping proffesor hulk will win.

    also the current superman is way stronger he can shift planets hod black holes with a single arm.
    hes taken a punch from flash who when at full speed
    shunted his MASS to infinity and still was up, albeit shaken badly.
    if hulk tries to tank that hes lifeless.also hulk could be killed
    within a fight against purple hulk he was impaled.
    next superman can shatter planets with blows carry issues and constructs
    that are considerably bigger and denser than earth.also note superman holds back
    considerably. he's CONFIRMED as becoming exceeding darkseid's strength significantly, even darkseid admits
    its because of superman self restraint. plus supermans heat
    vision has evapourated massive bodies of waters in seconds and hes
    also frozen rivers in seconds also. NOW To be HONEST HULK IS F***NG STRONG But just before he reaches supermans level it woud be more
    than.also i beieve hulks limitless strength doesnt make sense he absorbed a limited amount of energy and gained limitless
    power. the power he absorbed isnt near to a solar. so i do belive hes strength has an upper limit

  18. A useful review Chris. Did you test the GPS by any opportunity?

    I use Endomondo on my phone when out running and GPS
    performance (speed of locating satellites and so
    on) is important. Also, study some horror stories about new Xperia Zs
