Everyone experiences fear in their life. There are big fears we are very aware of and little ones we may not even realize we have. Overcoming fear is an essential step in achieving our goals and dreams. We fear failure, or rejection, or being embarrassed, or disappointing or angering other people, or getting hurt. As you study the Bible and meditate on what God says about you, you will be able to recognize the fears in your life that are holding you back and overcome them by seeing yourself in Christ. Simply because "God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7).
