The Baggage of Fear
Fear is one of the biggest hindrances in things we do in life. I remember I was sending my auntie to the airport and during our journey, I tried to ask her questions about her business since she owns a business and doing very well in life.
She told me not to fear anything in things that we do. Even sometimes we see negative things lie ahead of us, fear not because it is nothing but something we imagine in our head to be real.
F - False
E - Evidence
A - Appearing
R - Real
My mum also made it a point to support my studies in Australia, even though she was not earning a lot more money. Of course, she did not go and cheat or rob the bank for more money.
She started to expand her business from a florist to wedding decoration, landscape and advertisement printing. Friends around her said it was a bad choice to send me to Australia because she was not making a lot of money at all.
Instead of being beaten by all these words and fear, she proved to the people around her that she had made the right choice and had even expanded her business even greater.
So readers, fear not. What you imagine in your mind may appear real but when you do it, doors and opportunities will open.

I agree, completely. Fear not! I used to be the most negative person at all - who would sweat for the worst that was yet to come. And, things turned all bad, in the end. And it was like a vicious cycle. It kept running back to yourself, man! Terrible.
However, I have learned to put my trust in the almighty God. Since it’s His calling for me, I believe in His provision too. He would not have placed me in an impossible situation. He gives me a problem that I am able to solve it. So, I just do my part. And I just wait upon Him, believing that He would send the right people, open doors of opportunities for me, and at the right time.
As I walk with Him in this journey, I just know He is here. And the BEST is yet to come. So, I learn to trust in Him, and wait upon Him.
The bible says, “Perfect love casts out fear.” I have yet to comprehend its meaning fully though.
Fear NOT!
