FIGHT YOUR FEARS TO TAKE CONTROL

13.     FIGHT YOUR FEARS

 Fear is an enemy of success; fear could make a victor lose his victory; if he dares allow fright to mingle in between his concentration and focus. For example, Peters; when he was walking upon the waters to go meet Jesus at the other end of the river, he didn’t sink from the start, but when he gave room to doubts that precipitated into fears hence; killed the zeal and focus he once had, and then started sinking into the water. Fear indeed, doesn’t build; it breaks. Fear doesn’t energize, it paralyzes.

          Whenever fear grips you, it makes you feel destabilized, thereby waning your concentration and dissipates your accomplishing pace. Moreover, when you take time to fight your fears, by administering the right antidotes for a permanent solution – such as facing the fears one-after-the-other – by not giving in to doubts, being dogged and ruthless. According to Vergil; “They are able, because they think they are able” and Thomas Fuller said something very salient, that; “Brave actions never want a trumpet”. In this, when we can believe we are able to conquer our fears, I bet you, we won’t want our fears to cause us mountains that our faith could remove.

Moreover, fears are like shadows, whenever we take a look at the mirror, we see images of ourselves in form of shadows; it usually goes with us to wherever; except we reshape our look to give the shadows our desired images; if not, the shape would remain unchanged whenever we visit the mirror. Besides, if we run from our fears, whenever we come in contact with them; they would increase and wait for us where we left them; to attack us whenever we let them.
