I have been on a journey y’all! This subject comes up quite a bit on this blog because I am growing in it! God has been taking me from fear to faith.  From being afraid to believing God that whatever comes next, it is going to be ok.  I have talked more in depth about fear here, here and here.

Recently there have been 3 major things I have been learning when it comes to moving from fear to faith:

  1. Fear is often times based on things that are never actually going to happen.
  2. The more we perseverate on what we are afraid of the larger the “problem” becomes.  Invite a trusted individual into your thought process and allow them to talk with you through your fears. This will help you differentiate between fear vs. reality.
  3. Overcoming fear often times means stepping out in faith and actually DOING what you are afraid of.  When you do this, you are dealing with the fear head on and it becomes a non-issue.

I am going to be elaborating on this process a bit more personally in the coming weeks but wanted to start here! If y’all can relate or have something to add please share in the comments below!! Thanks as always for stopping by the blog!!

    First of all, that dress is GORGEOUS on you! Second, this fear you talk of is so annoying because it can pop up at any given time. But you’re so right: overcoming it often means taking faith and doing what scares you…or having faith that it will work out how it’s supposed to.

    Confronting fear is always the best and the worst (hardest) thing for me – but I always feel better for it when I do!

    That is so true that fear can be based on something that might happen but hasn’t happened yet. Overcoming fear for sure is challenge.

    I loved reading this ruthie. I have such a huge fear of the unkown and start developing bad anxiety about the things i cannot control. This is such a great reminder!

    First off, that outfit is adorable. SECONDLY, I LOVE YOUR HONESTY! MOVING FROM FEAR TO FAITH IS SO SCARY SOMETIMES, BUT SOMETIMES THAT SIMPLE ACT OF FAITH WHEN YOU FACE A FEAR IS EXACTLY WHAT GOD WANTED TO USE TO BEGIN CHANGING YOU. <3

    Iím impressed, I need to say. Really not often do I encounter a blog thatís each educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you could have hit the nail on the head. Your idea is excellent; the problem is one thing that not enough persons are talking intelligently about. I am very pleased that I stumbled across this in my search for something referring to this.

    Good ? I should certainly pronounce, impressed with your website. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs as well as related information ended up being truly easy to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, web site theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Nice task..

    An fascinating discussion will probably be worth comment. I do think that you need to write read more about this topic, it might not become a taboo subject but normally consumers are there are not enough to dicuss on such topics. To another. Cheers

    As these different influences came together, a distinctly Cuban taste and design developed, which is reminiscent of nation peasant models of cooking by oral custom and eye, fairly than relying on specific measurements and the creation of dishes that tend in the direction of the uncomplicated and hearty, and that can be left on their private to simmer. Fussy, large sauces are unusual and deep-frying is simply not a favored cooking technique. The island nation, by natural means, employs a wonderful offer of seafood in its cuisine, which encourages the use of basic cooking tactics and spicing that is meant to increase, not smother, natural flavors.
