EP.23: Are your fears controlling you?

Today's episode discusses how our fears control us or how we allow other's fears to control us. We know it's a natural instinct to remove ourselves, especially when we're in fight and flight mode. One thing we have to learn is how to face our fears and stop running away from them because of the unknown. God hasn't given us the spirit of fear. 2 Timothy 1:7I realize that we can allow people to instill fear in us because they are fearful, and because we are second-guessing what we know should do, and we have a small piece of fear in us that allows people's opinions to keep us stuck and paralyzed due to their own fears that are now projected onto us. Sometimes we have to sit still and ask ourselves, why are we running away from our fears, and realize there is a bigger problem that we need to address.  It's time to trust God, stop allowing others and ourselves to keep us stuck in our fears, it's time to move forward in our faith, knowing that we can conquer anything with the help of God. Don't allow your fears to dictate you; make the best decisions for you, and own them. Keep pushing forward, not letting your fears or other people's fears  push you away from having faith in God. Trust God no matter how fearful things may seem. Thank you again for tuning into a new episode of 'My Faith is Bigger than My Fears' podcast. I am your host, Tamela Ingram.
