Fear

Fear is a word that I never thought was a cause of the things I deal with in my life. My marketing teacher, Less lead a devotion yesterday in class about fear and how fear effected his life. He had us think about how much it really does effect us. I started to think about it and it is really true. Some of the things I fear:

-Not finishing college

-Not having a job to support myself after college

-Not falling in love and getting married

-Not being accepted

-My past will negatively effect my future

-Not having good close friends

-Not leaving a meaningful mark on the world

These are just some big ones for me right now and after I started to think about it, fear is at the root of a lot of things I do and say. My challenge to myself now is to really look fear in the eye with the realization that I belong to a God who can face the fear with me and His plan for my life can conquer any of my fears.
