In my experience, God rarely makes our fear disappear. Instead, He asks us to be strong and take courage. What is courage? As Ordinary discovered, courage is not the absence of fear; rather, it's choosing to act in spite of the fear. You could say that without fear, you can't have genuine courage.

Dependence upon God makes heroes of ordinary people like you and me!

Keep your eyes on Christ, not the circumstances you find yourself in or the feelings you are experiencing.

What counts is knowing who you want to be and asking for it.

If your life consistently bears no fruit, God will intervene to discipline you. If your life bears some fruit, God will intervene to prune you. If your life bears a lot of fruit, God will invite you to abide more deeply with Him.
