Random!?!?!

“A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for.”
- William Shedd

What has God called us to do that we aren't doing, are we ignoring God? I know sometimes I do...but we weren't created to sit there and do nothing! God created us with a purpose and a plan, he has put a calling on every single person, but how many of are walking in what he has called for us to do?

Jeremiah 29:11 says
" For I know the plans I have for you" says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not disaster, to give you future and hope."

God has done all the hard work, he has planned everything out for us...we just have to trust him and take action and do it!


This is just something that popped into my head as I was writing ^^^^ that up there so, I hope you enjoy it :)

Recently someone told me: "Kodie, stop being so fearful and just be bold!"
So I started facing my fears, your probably thinking that's easy right, WRONG! If you got serious and began to analyze your life, you would see that, there are things that don't seem like "fear" to you, but there are different types and forms of it. For example dreading something, being passive to avoid conflict, the simple thing most people deal with: caring what others think about you, and it can go on and on.

So how do we counteract fear? Easy answer: By FAITH!
Faith and fear have the same definition...
Faith-"believing in your heart that something you can't see with your eyes is going to come to pass"
Fear has the same definition as faith-"believing in your heart that something you can't see with your eyes is going to come to pass"

The difference is:
Faith is the "persuasion of the truth from God's word."
Fear is the "persuasion of a lie from Satan's word."
