Day 8..

Day 8: Fears: No spiders or horror films. What truly scares you that brings out human emotion? Why does it make you fearful? How would you confront your worst fear?

*

Truthfully, I'm not even really scared of spiders, horror films, or anything like that..

I'm more scared of the real parts of life.

Overall, my biggest fear is to not truly live.

There are so many things I want to do in my life, see, and become.

Just like a lot of other people, I fear that I will never get to do those things.

I want to live my life as fully as possible..

I don't like living the same day twice, and I don't plan to.

I have made many many changes in this last year to better myself and the life I plan to live.

I eliminated a lot of negative and brought in a lot of positive.

Ever since I was little, I knew God had a plan for me and my life.

As I am growing older, I still know that he has a plan...but understanding and figuring out what that plan is...

Well that's not easy.

Negative things are all around us..which makes it hard to escape.

These negative things have brought me so much anxiety..

I let it overcome my life and make me into a bitter person.

I let it carry me through my days with fear, desperation, and hopelessness.

...But i'm not letting it anymore.

I have made permanent changes in my life that I will never break.

I am moving forward with God by my side..

I will succeed.

I will do great things.

I will be the woman that I and God wants to be.

I will truly live the way God wants me to live.

*

To be honest, if it wasn't for God..I don't think I could face my fears..

I have made the choice to stand firm in what I believe and let God help me tackle my fears.

It's easy to get distracted, it's easy to stray away, and it's not always easy to make your way back.

When I am fearful, I try to turn to God as much as I can..

These are just a few verses that help me get through my day and night..they calm my fears and bring me peace...

"Fear not, for I am with you. I am your God, I will strengthen you. I will help you. I will uphold you with my righteous hand" -Isaiah 41:10

"When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer" -Psalms 94:19

"So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today" -Matthew 6:34

"Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done" -Philippians 4:6

Never forget to Thank God for all he has done..
