Life’s not as hard as it seems
Just trust in Him
When despair and fear holds you down
Know that the sun will shine through the clouds
So I talked to Jon, told him that I would take the job. I must be insane. As I was thinking about it though, everything will be fine. I mean, God’s the one who told me to do this, so I’m going assume He’s got my back on this one. Really, the only thing that would keep me back from it is my fear. Fear that I won’t do a good job, fear I will be substantially worse than the person before me, fear that I might have a mental breakdown in October, fear that I will be so consumed with this that I might not always be able to give the attention needed to my kids.
While I was also thinking about this, I was thinking about other times in my life when fear has dictated my life. Every time I have allowed my fears to get to me and run away, I never have liked the outcome. It was just this big revelation that I had this afternoon to not let my fear dictate my life. And it really began today by saying yes to that job. We’ll see how well this plan works in the other areas of my life. But as long as I’ve got God working with me, I know I can’t fail, and I know I’ll be able to face all those fears... no problem.
