I just recently bought the book “Fearless” and am almost finished reading it. What an awesome book! I am a gal who knows what it’s like to deal with fear. God is still helping me root out fears in my life! This is a great challenge you have started: to live fearlessly. May you be blessed as you not only challenge yourself but challenge others to live a fearless life.

I made my first Living Fearless blog post

Thank you for starting this series, Iris. It has allowed me to reflect on the past year and to put into words everything I was unwilling to confront and admit to myself. Best of all it is allowing me to see just how God is working in my life right now and what I should do to make his plans and purpose more real to me.

God bless you and see you at the next post

I love the quote at the end, too.

Love you!, my friend.

Iris I love that quote you ended with.

Strange that one of the biggest step I ever took was when I visited your home country to spend Christmas with a friend over five years ago. I\’d never traveled alone and definitely not that far, it involved four connecting flights one 8 hrs long. My biggest fear was that I\’d miss a connection someplace where I didn\’t speak the language. I decided to do it anyway and my biggest fear came to past I missed my connection in France (thank God it was the last connection) but I actually didn\’t panic as much as I thought I would.

That experience taught me that even if my worst fear comes to pass, God is still in control and He works it all out for my good.

Thanks for this series, I needed the reminder.

My biggest step was public speaking during the women’s tea last year. What a step in faith that was for me. I think I was on an emotional high for about a month. I think my greatest fear was people at church not taking me seriously. Many did not know me well, and some may have even thought “who the heck is this girl and why is she our public speaker?”

In so many ways this allowed me to live what I spoke (living beyond), but it also led to me experiencing some of the lows this last year. But God is showing me he is in control through the highs and through the lows.

Look forward to reading more my friend.
