Dear Fear,

Dear Fear,

I once had you, sometimes I still do. But I sometimes at night I pray for courage. I pray to stand up for what is right and true. I pray that I will have the courage to say what I feel and to act on those feelings.

I trust that God will give me courage to overcome you in my life and to do the things that need doing. To say what needs to be said, and to follow the path that might be harder to go down.

Someday, I will stand tall and know I've overcome you. And to know I didn't do it alone. With faith, nothing is impossible.

So try if you must, but I will beat you.

Les
