Fearless-Factor - Psalm 145:19

Do you fear pain? Do you fear heartache? How do you deal with this fear? Troubles come in many different ways. Life can throw many obstacles in your way to hold you back from your true potential. Our fear of failure, can be one of the biggest. As a child we all have the BIG Dreams that seem so easy to reach because life hasn't thrown to many things at us. As we get older, we start to see things aren't always as easy as we would like them to be. Life has gone from playing with your dad in the back-yard wanted to go pro, imaginary friends, G.I.Joe and Star Wars, to looking to find where you fit in. Our dreams start to fade and life begins to carry us away from what life is all about, Living life to the fullest. We look back and remember and feel the heartache of lost dreams. We then look ahead and are afraid to take the chances with the opportunities life offers. We are afraid of the pain that will accompany a possible failed effort. God doesn't want us to think about missed dreams and opportunities. If we make Christ our main focus, there is never a missed opportunity, just a new day to achieve it. God made all things on earth to remind us of simple lessons. Each day is like the beach. We can make castles and sand mermaids, even write in the sand, but God also created the moon which controls the tide and wipes the slate clean everyday. Life is what you make it. We can sit in the side lines and be a spectator OR we can allow to let God bless our lives now. God wants to give us the desires of our hearts. He wants us to enjoy the life He has given us. Don't be afraid of the opportunities that God places before us. Heaven is going to be great, but God wants us to enjoy life now. This is our test run for Eternity. So lets Stand up enjoy this day that the Lord has made. He will be our guide if we seek Him first. The Fearless Factor for today is Psalm 145: 19 "He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them. God is near and hears our prayers and wants to give us the desires of our hearts. He is watching over us. We have nothing to fear. Be Fearless and Quiet No More. Your Brother in Christ, Trey Ore
