Breaking Up With Fear

F E A R… something that has controlled my life for way too long and held me back from following my hearts desires.  Something that has been the reason for my tears more times than it should have…

Fear of not being a good sister.

Fear of not being a good example to those around me.

Fear of letting my parents down.

Fear of not being a good enough blogger.

Fear of not being pretty “enough”.

Fear of what people think of me.

Fear of being taken for granted.

Fear of dancing in front of others.

Fear of being misjudged.

Fear of letting people hear my voice.

Fear of not becoming a good enough pastry chef.

Fear of wayyy too many things.

I didn’t realise how much I had let fear control me until someone asked me a couple months ago what my hobbies were and I realised I no longer had any because I was letting fear hold me back.

In the past month I realised how much I have allowed myself to be a victim of fear and I am beyond done with it!  So this is me breaking up with fear.  I know it won’t always be easy and there will be times when I say no when in reality I want to say yes but it’s time for me to move forward and not let fear control me anymore.

“Cast all your anxieties on him because he cares for you”. – 1 Peter 5:7

Many Blessings, Grace. Xx

  1. What you’ve written reminds me of this scripture 💕

    “Whenever our hearts make us feel guilty and remind us of our failures, we know that God is much greater and more merciful than our conscience, and he knows everything there is to know about us. My delightfully loved friends, when our hearts don’t condemn us, we have a bold freedom to speak face-to-face with God. And whatever we ask of him we receive, because we keep his commands. And by our beautiful intentions we continue to do what brings pleasure to him.”
    ‭‭1 John‬ ‭3‬:‭20‬-‭22‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  4. fear is always here
    protects you from harm
    stunts your progress
