What are most afraid of? What is
your greatest fear? What do you worry about constantly? Fear is a powerful
emotion and one that acts unconsciously affecting how you live. Fear may be
active without you being aware of it, clouding your decisions and affecting your
moods.
Fear defined means an
uncomfortable feeling caused by the belief that a situation is dangerous, can
cause pain or is threatening. Fear can cause a feeling of dread and anxiety
that can be real or imagined but can continue to affect how we think and feel
and therefore, how we act.
Fear causes us to avoid
situations because of our feelings of apprehension. These feelings are just too
uncomfortable for us and many of us will do anything we can to avoid them.
I
would like to suggest that we look to our faith in God when life is uncertain
and challenges us. Our faith is what we need to draw on when life gets tough
and uncomfortable. It is through painful and difficult experiences that we can
learn about ourselves and grow as a person. We learn more about others and
ourselves through trials, defeat and tragedy. Yet, we develop courage, build
character and increase our compassion for others.
Don’t allow fear to influence
how you live and instead, let your faith in God empower you and guide you where
you need to be. Remember, that all things happen for good of those that love
the Lord. Have peace in knowing that you aren't alone and direct your fearful
energy towards your blessings.
Thank you for sharing this information. A friend of mine took advantage of counseling services in Wooster, OH after experiencing a tragedy. It really makes a difference when you realize that you don't have to go through traumatic experiences alone.
