Thanks to Mama's Losin' It Writers workshop here is my writing challenge for today
What am
I Afraid
Of ???
Maybe a better question is what aren't I afraid of?
I'm afraid of soooo many things,
Calling people on the telephone
All types of adventure sport
(even our back yard water slide!!!)
Challenging people when I know I should
Sharing my faith in Jesus when given perfect oppurtunities
When the kids are sick
When hubby is sick
When I'm sick
When I have to drive, especially right hand turns and traffic lights
failure
trying and failing
YET
I'm not afraid of:
public speaking
leading singing in front of 700+ kids
running kids aerobics
leading worship
One of the speakers I heard at my conference said you should run towards your fears,
tackle them head on he said, that's the only way to conquer them.
And though I don't see bungy jumping in my future, I think he really has a point! When my fears are pulling me back I need to face them, conquer them and move on from them.
If we can do this, we can do anything!
Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
THAT'S your backyard waterslide???
ReplyDeleteWOW!!
That's awesome!

PS I think that speakers is right... but I'm with you on the bungy jumping!

The YOUTH group loved the water slide, though after a few runs they did find a few rocks lol! My husband loves to try something bigger each year, we used to just slide down the grass reserve this is much faster, and I think he is still saving for the water pump to make it even better tee hee!
