Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult. You may be given a cactus, but you don't have to sit on it.

I believe confidence is all about being positive concerning what you can do -- and not worrying over what you can't do. A confident person is open to learning, because she knows that her confidence allows her to walk through life's doorways, eager to discover what waits on the other side. She knows that every new unknown is a chance to learn more about herself and unleash her abilities.

Fear tries to get us to give up but faith takes us all the way through to victory

If you are facing a new challenge or being asked to do something that you have never done before don't be afraid to step out. You have more capability than you think you do but you will never see it unless you place a demand on yourself for more.

God does not always call us to go back physically to a place we have been. But if for example we have a difficult time submitting to a boss with a certain personality God may call us to continue working with someone who has the same personality until we master the situation in a godly way. God does not want us to be on the run He wants us to confront our fears and frustrations in order to find peace in Him.

Just because you feel fear doesn't mean you can't do it. Do it afraid

When we face our fears, we can find our freedom.

I was afraid to let other make any decisions, because I had no confidence they would be concerned for me.

Lord, what if I miss You? What if I miss You? What if I miss You? Oh, I'm so scared! God, what if I miss You? He answered simply, Joyce, don't worry; if you miss Me, I will find you.

Fear makes you feel surrounded by an enemy. Faith makes you realize you are surrounded by God.

When you put your feet on the floor every morning, Hell should shake!

If you focus on your problems or your frustrations, your attitude is going to be negative and defeated. But when you put your focus on God and His promises for your life, your attitude will immediately change.
