Some will say fear of the unknown or Eternity.... I say you do not need to worry about things you do not have control over. You do not know if the plane you are in will crash 15 minutes after take-off....If those in the Dana crash knew how that day was going to turn out, they wouldn't have boarded (may their souls rest in peace). If you were deeply invested prior 07/08, you probably would have cashed out before the market crashed. Everyday is a risk. People lock up their doors and windows at night to feel safe, but a truck comes crashing in and the whole building comes crumbling...**Shrugs** safe indeed. Or you are in your office, 87th floor, without a worry in the world and a plane crashes into that building; everyone on that floor dies....you would wish in your afterlife you called in sick that day. Let me stop the negativity.....say you board a taxi and find a bag on the back seat full of cash, as a child of God you look for the owner so you can return it since there is an ID in the bag. The owner chooses to part ways with 40% of $200M (now that's rare but it happens).....you'll probably pray everyday is like that day.
Our dear Jesus said in 2Timothy 1vs7 "God didn't give us a cowardly spirit but a spirit of power, love, and good judgment."......but remember that we shouldn't claim His promises for us without living a Christ-like life. He hasn't put in us a spirit of fear.....
Some say they are afraid of Love...what kind of love i would imagine; i want to believe they are referring to love in relationships with their partners. Humans, especially in recent times aren't capable of showing true love without the power and grace of God in them (my opinion, you can prove me wrong). Two people from different backgrounds, upbringing, taste and style come together to live as one; to do this they need to have something in common. They claim to love one another and want to spend the rest of their lives together.....Now note, an individual is attracted to the opposite sex by appearance then speech and probably sense of humour (at least for me). If they end up together and somehow, this 3 things vanishes, then the other party becomes less the person you fell in 'love' with. Living together then becomes a necessity either because of the children or the society pressure. So tell me, does this scenario depict real love? I mean, i love my family, i can do anything for them through Christ that strengthens me but outside them.......i don't know o.
Someone said her fear is 'the process of giving birth"...every woman i believe is afraid of this pain but the joy that comes after is worth every bit. The thought that life is growing inside you, that you have been blessed with fertility.....it can only WOW you at the end of the day. People have different stories, but as long as the child is fine, then the joy of that moment is complete.
A guy mentioned he is scared of commitment....please it is not a must oo!!. Live alone all you want as long as you do not break hearts in the process of "wanting to be alone or not wanting to commit" i am sure you will find your type somewhere in this crazy world. Live together non 'commitedly'...
Loneliness, Rejection, Poverty, Horror movies, Wealth, Failure.....this are outburst of individuals fear.
How can someone be afraid of wealth though, isn't it everyone's wish to be wealthy. Maybe the pride that comes with wealth. hmmmm!!!
