Courageous When It Counts

these words are hard and easy. sometimes i do boldly walk, sometimes i sit in fear. its easy to know these words to be true but as a generality its easier to hear negative instead of positive. because god does constantly speak to us encouragingly we dont hear it to well. whereas the negative constantly spoken by the devil is unmistakable. so how do we hear gods voice louder than the devils. surely when things are good in our walk we hear him but not as much when we arent at our best. we need to tune our ears to gods frequency. not a hard task. or is it. god is constantly working for good. sometimes its hard to see but if we believe that and live accordingly it wouldnt be a problem to hear gods encouragment through all the mess.
im scared when i think about my future and what that will look lik. why? because it looks like its so far away and i dont even see anything. nothing but possabilities. and this makes me fearfull cause its unknown to me. and all i know is it can be whatever if i go for it. but whatever it is it requires time to get there. and im scared to start taking that time to grow into...what? i dont know. its hard to take what i see as such a huge blind leap. so what can i do about it? have faith and communion with god. to at lerast look into these possabilities and somewhere after that wilk into one. i guess i can just make something happen, otherwise nothing will and i willl still be here. stuck. afraid. clueless.
so god thats it. im afraid to build my future. to take bigger risks and compromise my living comforts. i know its just for a season. but im afraid to do the extra work. i guess it would just shift all of life around and you would give me new comfort. and i would be a different person so my joys would be different and accesible. thank you for hearing me and knowing what you have for me. help me to be courageous to look and attain it.
only be strong and courageous.
give these words strength and power in me.
