Fear and Faith

Crystin Gilmore

Fear and Faith are two powerful words. They can evoke angst or calm, dread or peace.  I have worked myself into a tizzy over scenarios I had created in my head. Fear of a negative situation that I had willed into existence with my words and thoughts overcame any positive outcome. 

The power of the tongue is real. We can speak life or death.... but oh, when I walk out on faith- the belief and trust in God for things unseen, I'm blessed every time. Now, I must tell you, the Lord is not here to answer our every prayer the way we desire, he's here to direct our path in the way that blesses us overall. Sometimes that will show up as life's rejection but God's protection.  I challenge you to lean into faith and less into fear until fear completely disappears.
