The Room called Fear
<p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>Can we talk about fear for a second?</p><p><br/></p><p>Fear walks into the room like it owns the place. </p><p>Sits in your chest, kicks its feet up, </p><p>and whispers, _“Don’t. You can’t. What if you fail? </p><p>And then u wonder ...</p><p>What if I'm not enough? </p><p>What if I mess up? </p><p>What if they laugh?</p><p>What will people say?</p><p><br/></p><p>Those people ?</p><p>They will talk anyways </p><p><br/></p><p>Fear is a liar with a very convincing voice. </p><p>It tells you to shrink so the world won’t notice you. </p><p>Fear tells us to stay quiet in class when God put a voice in us.</p><p>Fear tells us to dim our light on campus so we can"fit in"</p><p>Fear tells us we are too young, too late, too broken.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>Fear talks loud in our generation</p><p>It tells u to hide your gift. To shrink. To wait until you're "ready"</p><p>To keep the dream in your head </p><p><br/></p><p>But...</p><p><br/></p><p>Fear is not proof that you should stop. </p><p>Fear is proof that you’re standing at the edge of something that matters.</p><p>You are not weak for being scared</p><p>You're human </p><p><br/></p><p>You don’t have to be fearless. </p><p>Courage isn’t the absence of shaking hands. </p><p>Courage is shaking hands and opening the door anyway. </p><p>God isn't disappointed in your shaking hands</p><p>He said "do not fear, for I am with you"</p><p><br/></p><p>He's in the anxiety with you</p><p>In the uncertainty</p><p>In the "God, I don't know what to do next"</p><p><br/></p><p>So breathe...</p><p>you don't have to have it all figured out</p><p>you just have to take the next step.</p><p>And the next</p><p>And let him walk with u</p><p><br/></p><p>To everyone reading,</p><p>Your fear doesn't disqualify you. </p><p>It just means you're about to do something that matters </p><p>So let fear talk. </p><p>Let it tremble in the corner. </p><p>But don’t let it drive. </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>Don’t wait until fear leaves. </p><p>It won’t. </p><p>Walk with it. </p><p>And walk past it.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because the world is not waiting for perfect people </p><p>It's waiting for people who are afraid...but obedient</p><p><br/></p>
