We all must face fear with the lie that has been perpetrated against us at various times in our lives. It's true...I learned something over the past week: "Never Let Your Feelings Tell You How to Feel," and "Never Let Your Feelings Tell You How To Believe." Wow, this was such a profound statement, I had to share it with those of you who have taken time to read this. And I trust this will be of encouragement to those who haven't ever read any of the Finding Heart First Blogs.
Fear is not for the lion-hearted, as a matter of fact it really isn't for YOU, period. Did you know that fear is a learned behavior? Who told you that you had to be afraid? Society has portrayed the image as a norm, but this is a lie. Not being fearful doesn't mean go out and do something unwise, rather it is a conscience awareness of knowing what opportunities and possibilities await the brave-hearted. Sure, none of us really understand this until we grow in years, but for you my friends who may not be as wise in years as I've grown to see, this is a heads-up, a quick tip, info ahead of it's time for you before you reach the age threshold that I have passed over. I'm still very young, but maybe I'm just an old man in a youngman's body. Nevertheless, this is a gift for me to share with you, an informational gift. Receive it -you're very welcome.
I think sometimes a little fear is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteIt's bad when it keeps us from doing anything at all.
