If we give into fear our life becomes limited. Our world shrinks and we get put in a box with walls of fear. Intimidation and fear are becoming more pronounced in our society. Every time a terrorist commits another cowardly act of intimidation, we find ourselves becoming more and more unsettled. When women are harassed and intimidated by people in power. it makes them afraid to speak out for fear of reprisal. Resisting fear and speaking out gives our voice power and strength. This is why we write. Words can make a difference. Don’t be intimidated by fear. Stand and Speak the Truth!
Fear
Fear creates anxiety
Believing we are helpless
Unable to control our future
Fear drives us to climb on board
Riding the band wagon of destress
Cheering as we careen toward the cliff
Fear pre-empts good judgement
Listening to our insecurities
Instead of common sense
Fear is grasping for that last straw
Knowing it will not save us
But denying the inevitable
Fear is the method of control and intimidation
For politicians, religious leaders, and jihadi terrorists
Dictators, Presidents, Kings, and Priests
Why do we choose a spirit of fear
When we could have…
‘a Spirit of power, of love, and of a strong mind’ (NKJV)
Light a candle of hope… dispel the darkness of fear
