Fear is a very real emotion. All of us are afraid of something. I am sometimes afraid of not being able to provide for my family. I am afraid of getting ill and not being able to work. I am afraid of losing the people I love so dearly. I am afraid of not being able to live up to the standards I teach in every class.
What gives me peace and the ability to face my fears on a daily basis is my faith. For me that faith is God. God teaches me I am right where I am suppose to be. I believe “God never gives me more than I can handle.” With God, I have the strength to face all my fears and strive to be a better person. For me, it is an act of true faith to believe with God, everything will be alright. When my fears get the best of me, I surrender them up to God. I believe where I can’t, God can.
I choose to embrace my fears like a best friend. I hold them close to my heart with acceptance and love. This helps me overcome my fears. I believe it is the path to serenity.
Lastly, I accept it is okay to be afraid. What is not okay, is to let my fears stop me from
fulfilling my dreams and creating the best life possible for myself, my family and the people I serve at One Martial Arts.
So I live everyday with my fears. I also live with the faith, hope and belief that with God’s
love and mercy, I can overcome those fears and fulfill all of my dreams.
