March with Courage

Masterful Mindsets ~ March into March with Courage!

“You have a choice to let fear or faith rule your life. Which will you choose?” ~ Michelle Weimer

Question: 

Do you let fear or faith rule your life? What do you worry about or fear most in life? How would your life be different if you had more courage?

Action Challenge:

March 1st was a milestone day for my family. My youngest daughter got her braces off and my oldest daughter got her driver’s license. I was excited for both of them but at the same time, I could feel the dread and fear creeping up as I watched them blossom that day. My babies aren’t my babies anymore. They are growing up and becoming independent. Which is of course, what I want for them but at the same time, it’s bittersweet. Hence those pesky feelings of dread and fear.

If you follow me on Instagram then you probably saw my IG Story – I shot a video about fear vs faith just after my girls got into the car together and drove off for the first solo drive. (Yes, I cried when they left.) But after the initial fear, I realized something… I could either live in fear or I could have faith.

No matter what, I do not have control of every situation. Never did really. Life is full of unknowns and nothing is really guaranteed. But what I can control, is my mind. I can let myself go down the dark hole of fear and worry. Or I can say a prayer, let go and have faith.

So that evening as they drove off… I wiped my tears, told my fear that was enough, said a prayer and had faith that they would be alright. Then I went on with my evening. Which is when I decided to do the video on Instagram because all this got me thinking… every step along life’s journey is like this. With each big transition or milestone, we must decide if we are going to stay paralyzed in fear or take that next step in faith. You can’t move forward in life very well without trust and faith.

So my challenge to you is that you start marching forward in your life with courage and faith. Faith in yourself and your abilities, faith in your ability to figure things out that you aren’t quite sure of and faith in the Higher Power that gave you the gifts you possess. You have what you need within to create the life you desire. You just need to choose whether you will let fear or faith rule you. I say, choose faith! It’s time to start marching forward with courage.
