I prayed my heart out!


Sometimes I feel heavy burdens on me. They hold me down and keep me from pushing myself forward. Heavy obstacles and fears that well up inside my heart when I have goals to complete and challenges to meet. Fears that make me question if I can do it or not.

The questions turn into realites when they come to me. They create doubts that hurt my spirit and turn into an inability to complete tasks at hand. I know through God I can over come these things.

So today I prayed my heart out and placed every fear and insecurity in Gods hands and asked him to remove them so I can do what i am called to do in this life. When I did this it felt good. Energy surged through my body and I was ready to start. Fear is a burden that will incapacitate us and hold us back from our potential. It creates doubt and a burden that turns to depression and finally a belief that that we can't do something. We have to believe we can over come fear and believe we can be better than we are and most of all believe we can actually be what it is we desire.

Most of all we have to believe in the power of God and the courage he puts in each and every one of us so we can over come our burdens and never look back.

I don't want to look back. Today I move forward with courage and strength because in God all things are possible.

Matthew 11:28-29 (New International Version)

28"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
