make it” has been a huge part of my life. I can look confident on the outside now, but the truth is that I still wear all black and sweat, I still get sick to my stomach, and I still dread making work-related phone calls. The difference is that now, I know I'm capable of doing it all despite how much I hate it.
I wasted years of my life being afraid of what might happen if I did the things God wanted me to do most. Today, I play piano for church, I take part in theater performances, sometimes in lead roles, and I write for the newspaper, which involves lots of phone calls and interviews with people I've never met. I don't do any of this because I'm a strong person, or because I have an extra dose of talent. I can do these things because I finally let God take the wheel and be bigger than fear. And believe me, those fears are pretty huge.
morning is a new decision to let fear win or to let the courage that only comes from above win. I don't always make the right decision. But thank God, He gives us another opportunity with each sunrise.
