why am I writing again so soon? Here’s why…. I saw this quote on a page on Instagram that I follow…. usually I just scroll through, but no not today. I sat there and stared at it for quite a while.

I looked and knew there was a reason I wouldn’t take my eyes off of it.

The quote is : “people are afraid of being alone in the dark… because they feel they aren’t actually alone.”

Alright you might be saying… uhh really? this makes no sense. but don’t worry there is a meaning…. just be patient with me.

I looked at this quote and then it hit me. This four lettered word that is used so commonly. FEAR. YES FEAR. It traps us in a world of idol ness. it makes you go insane. it saves lives and it can break someone in half.

Fear is used as a safety net. What’s a safety net? a safety net is your first instinct. Fear also is used as a routine. Am I right?

When we are lost and not in our normal selves’ state of mind we forget who we are. At least I did. We give up. We forget what it is like to fight.

People do not even know who their own selves are because they are filled with fear. Fear is the devil, the lakes of Fire, the monster in each of us. It overtakes our lives. Our minds.

The question is… are you living in fear? I sit there and look at Sadie Robertson and wish I was as FEARLESS as her. I wish I could be as bold as her. Not let anything bother me.

But it doesn’t mean she doesn’t have struggles also. Cause trust me we all do. I just admire her for her grace.

We live in a world where the society does what they want. They don’t care about everyone’s feelings involved. They don’t care about spreading the gospel to help make this world a little better..Why? Because we are so afraid. Afraid of what people might think. What they might say. The looks we might get. We live in a world where it is okay to live in fear.

Admit it. It’s okay. None of us are fearless. But I just wonder how awesome and happy this world could be through God’s Grace and no fear.

So I have a challenge… when you feel as if you are lost. worried. afraid. alone. Which is completely OKAY!! Remember, you are in this sinful world for a reason. To CHANGE it. TO MAKE IT FEARLESS. You are more precious than rubies. You are perfect the way you are. You can do it. If we come together and quit living in fear. We might not change the world completely but every step is closer to where it needs to be.

You are fearless… if you allow yourself to be.
