My WA Family, Fear is a Reaction, and Faith is a Decision.
My WA Family, Fear is a Reaction, and Faith is a Decision.
Fear is a BIG obstacle to success. While you are ruled by fear, you'll never take enough risks and never achieve the success you deserve.
In case you, too, are struggling to take control of your anxiety.
I had this Zip Lining adventure years ago. I went Zip lining adventure in Cebu, Philippines. Yes, at first, I was terrified and scared. It got much higher than you imagine. Being around people who had faith helped me to find courage.
This adventure talks us higher and higher. If you decide to back up or returning was not an option at the very moment. The people around me served as an example showing me how to move forward powerfully with each jump.
At our work here in WA and the affiliate marketing business, I realize that surrounding yourself with people willing to take leaps of faith helps us get to the other side of potential falls.
YOU can also find inspiring people online who can bring out the courage in you. Logically you can see that the people who decide to move forward fearlessly are not much different than YOU.
You can find courage by watching people take leaps of faith.
And then, you can decide to choose FAITH over FEAR.

Enjoy your day and a Happy Sunday! Everyone!
Love you all!

Hey girl! You don't see your cat free climbing up the nooks and crannies of the furniture in the high ceiling ed living room with rope, hard hat, climbing shoes, carabiners, chocks, etc., do you?
No, it's a cat, and it's a cat doing it's exploratory thing.
If it falls out of a tree. it's played with stretching it's own limits since itty bitty kitty time.
Now we are in the WA playground, and maybe we should PLAY attention to the lessons of our cat?
WA is team sport, so the only way to hurt yourself...Is not to play!
What about the guy on the TED talk, who signed himself up? to do 365 thing he's never done before, and surely some of those things could damage a person.
Or Miracle Grow a person!
Which one did he go for? Well here's a hint. He did make it to TED.
Would you go for 365 of it?
Would your kitty go? Kitty would try, but she can 't count.
I'd make a little song! Goes like this,
"Faith is the bridge over Fear!"
Take that leap to draw your dreams ever near.
As I grow stronger, My leaps can get longer!
Because,
Faith is the bridge over Fear.
When I sit with you at the top,
Neither of us needs to open our mouths.
Like the Little Prince, words of worlds of change
Simply can't explain the Vision of a Shared Heart
Because
Faith is the bridge over fear....And we did it together!
Thank you Dear Joyce,
Suzay
Hello Suzy!
You make me happy, again!
Thank you so much for your kind sharing of your own thought, and it's effortless. Yeah. I love cats and your example.
I love your song, too.
And I love this: Faith is the bridge over fear...And we did it together!
Thank you so much for your lovely contribution to this post. I appreciate you so very much.
Best wishes and God Bless!

Morning Joy, Joy, Joyce,
(did you know this allegorical Big Grown-up Children's song?:
J.O.Y., J.O.Y. this must surely mean,
Jesus first , you (we) are last, and others in between)-to the tune of Jingle Bells...
You make my day too Joyce, even though I have to get a blood draw today.
You got me laughing too.
Oh well, the stick will be quick if someone named Darneesha does it. (No jokes about what her mother could have said when she found out she was pregnant!). Keep a lid on it. :>}
Sending forever LOVE back to you. Have a wonderful day!
Suzay
You are so amazing! Suzy.
Yeah, I know Jingle Bills...I like that song, Christmas song.
Thank you very much. I really appreciate you.
All the best,
Joyce
Faith is the certainty of what to expect and the conviction of what we don't see. Hebrews 11:1. I live by faith because I know who's behind it. We have to hold on until the end. Thanks Joyce
Hello Eugene!
Thank you so much for the beautiful insight you shared; my friend, Eugene, I love it. Yes, I believe when you have faith, you trust or believe in something very strongly.
Thank you so much for your comment and support.
Best wishes and God bless!
Thanks,

I’d not considered that particular combination before ... fear versus faith ... thank you for highlighting it Joyce.
:-)
Richard
Hello Richard!
I appreciate you very much, and I respect you really.
But based on my research. Fear has no place in a believer's life.
And I found this believer's many here in Wealthy Affiliate and found them successful.
So we must pray and ask the holy spirit to speak to us in ways that build us up. So, when fear starts to run its mouth and in our thoughts, we will boldly proclaim faith in him.
Thank you so much for your kind comment and support.
I appreciate you, my friend.
Thank you and God Bless!

Thank you, Jeff!
I've got your point, and I respect that too. Everywhere I've read, especially on FB. Fear and faith cannot coexist. This fear-faith declaration is not new, and I've heard it many times, even before. You have probably been taught the same thing: faith and fear are the opposite, never seen or mentioned together. This is not altogether inaccurate, but I want to share a different perspective on the relationship between faith and fear. I just found these two words do and can coexist. I have read it from one of my favorites verses, Hebrews11:7 by the faith of Noah. I just got the idea that both faith, fear were mentioned together in the same verse! I've learned that these two words can't go together. I completely missed the importance of this verse. To make it short, my friend, Jeff. I still have that of godly fear and or the fear of the Lord! It's all-state in the bible, and many of us have been read about that, I hope.
I hope I didn't do anything wrong here, and you know the purpose of my post is to encourage someone to believe in themselves, that's all. And I welcome anyone can correct me if you've seen that I am wrong. I like correcting myself too—no hurt feelings. No one is perfect, and I still in the process of learning and improving myself.
I believe in him, and at the same time, I am afraid of him. I want to do good things as good as possible because of my strong faith in the lord.
Thank you so much, my friend, and God bless!
I thank you so much for your reminders.
All the best,
Joyce
No problem, Joyce! Fear of the Lord; however, is different from the fear of evil or ordinary things though, in my opinion!
Jeff
According to a psychological research done on FEAR it means
Fantasised Experience Appearing Real
Hello Rich!
I'm happy to hear from you.
Yes, fear alerts us to the presence of a dangerous situation or the threat of harm, whether that danger is physical or psychological.
And thank you so much for your kind comment and contribution to this post. I appreciate it very much.
Best wishes to you, and God Bless!
Thanks,

There's a saying in my country "show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are". Our circle of friends here at WA are powerful and motivational that's why many of us achieve success beyond our dreams. They help us to choose Faith or Fear everyday.
Thanks for sharing Joyce
Love that saying Roberta. Thst is the one I've used with my kids
