Faith and Fear

This month I have been BLESSED with the wonderful oppertunity to have lots of challenges.
Offten times when thing happen in life we tend to be afraid and get scared and worried that things will not work out. I do tend to get scared when things happen. I constantly worry about money, I know I shouldnt because the Lord will provide for me as long as I do what I am supposed to be doing, but I cant help but worry.
So my trials have brought fear to my heart. The cost of fixing my car, the cost of school, not getting hours at work, not making enough money, looking at my bank account. It scares me. I dont know if I will make it. I dont know if I will have enough.
If there is anything I have learned lately is that as long as I fear, I can have no faith. Faith and fear are total opposits. When you fear something happening you have lost the faith and hope that good will come out of it. I have taken my challenges in my life and have constintly reminded me every time that I start to fear that the Lord will take care of me. I have faith and hope that all will work out how it is supposed to. The Lord sees the big picture and he will help me so what is supposed to happen will happen.
I will not fear the unknown, yet take a step into the dark and have faith that the Lord will guide me to the end.
