Fear

Okay, I'm gonna admit it.... I have a lot of fears in life. Some rational, most of them irrational. Fear of things I have no control over. Things that I know, with all of my heart and all of my soul, will work out just fine and be so great in the end.

It's a constant battle with my heart.

And its frustrating. And annoying. And I get so mad at my self because if I just had adequate faith I wouldn't have so many fears about the future.

AND THEN, i heard a quote by Elder Holland about fear that just about broke my heart. He says:

"I submit to you that this may be one of the Savior's commandments, that is even in the hearts of otherwise faithful Latter Day Saints almost universally disobeyed. I'm convinced that none of us can appreciate how deeply it wounds the loving heart of the Savior of the world, when He finds that his people do not feel confident in His care, or secure in His hands, or trust in His commandments."

Yeah, heart broken.

I know I shouldn't have fears. I do have faith. I trust Him.

So bloggy people, goal for the day//week//month//year//life is to stop fearing. My goal is to be fearless.
