It’s okay to be afraid (God knows why)

When my kid started to walk my wife and I was side by side assisting my son, every time he step his baby foot, he was shaking, and crying, he fell down many times and we always say it’s okay baby try again get up, when it’s hard for him I pick him up and let him start again and again and again until he no longer fear and start to walk with confidence.

Do you remember your childhood time when you and I run to daddy and mommy for help, especially when we are scared, Well, things change when we begin to grow old our situation in life is so much different than before especially when we have a family of our own. We now think that everything is complicated and it’s harder and harder every day feels like your trap and you need to escape worries begin to take over; bill payment, house, school, jobs and so on, then you don’t notice fear takes to control. At times like this we need something or most especially someone to help us take over and that’s a fact, we may think that daddy and mommy are no longer capable to comfort us, we need more than a shoulder to cry on or a hug that will ease like a magic and make fear disappear.


One of the realities, why we fear or worry is that we easily forget the real meaning of our existence, a purpose why we were here is no longer a reality; we keep our self so much busy trying to make things work in order to survive, is this really why we are here? I’m not saying we don’t work what I’m saying, we may be forgetting who we really are, the kind of God’s people whom He love and care.

It’s okay to be afraid but don’t let fear control you from what you want to do. Don’t let fear steal your joy, do you want fear to stay and beat you for the rest of your life? You're being bullied again and again “it’s impossible you can't make it better quit now”

We need to stand on our ground and face the adversity with confidence that we have someone greater than everything else, it’s always our decision that make a difference if we decide to do the will of God, then we will not miss a chance to know what we are made for, Knowing that we are part of God’s greater plan how He love's us so much that heaven and earth cannot separate us from his love so be strong and be courageous no matter how hard life we have here on earth, always remember it’s a preparation for the life we will have on heaven, and it was being carefully premeditated by our author and our finisher of faith Jesus.

Psalm 23
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil;
