Meditations on God

There are many forms of fear.

Some fears are quite real, your body and mind’s way of telling you that something is wrong and that you are in imminent danger.

These fears arise to protect you and to keep you safe

As such, these experiences of fear should be respected and given attention.

Most of the time, however, the fear you experience has nothing to do with actual danger.

Most of your fears do not exist to protect you from harm, but to prevent you from taking risks.

These fears arise to challenge you.

These fears are your mind and body’s way of asking you if you are serious, if you really want to do something brave and become someone new, or if you want to back down and stay the same.

These are the fears that tell you that you are not good enough, that you do not deserve success, and that you are not worthy of your dreams and aspirations.

These fears exist to be overcome.
