#840: Courage Over Fear
from Raising Godly Boys Minute · host Trail Life USA
On his first day of preschool my son peered into the classroom and said, “Dad, I don’t want to go in there.” I dropped to one knee in front of him and put my hand on his shoulder. Meeting him eye-to-eye, I reminded him about the first time he had ridden a pony. At first, he had been scared of the horse. But he faced his fear, and had been so glad that he did. With that memory in mind, my son walked confidently into the preschool classroom. When your son is filled with insecurity, it’s time to get on his level. Eye to eye, physical touch, focused attention. Replace the fearful thoughts in his mind with reminders of how he is already the brave man that he needs to be.
