Moving In Fear

I've heard plenty of times "feel the fear, but do it anyways." I personally have tried this method, but each time was unsuccessful when it came time to do it anyway. It's one thing to be empowered to do something, and it's another to be crippled by fear to do that thing. They say fear is just something we create in our minds, but it's not the reality of our situation. I can believe it, because there are so many times we go into situations feeling insecure about things people don't even notice.

"They say fear is just something we create in our minds, but it's not the reality of our situation."

I personally am not afraid to do the thing though, my fear is within myself. I sense so deeply that God is calling me to be a public speaker. Just the thought of that scares me so much. I fear I won't find the right words to say. I fear I won't make sense when it comes time to speak. Despite feeling like this though, I am actually empowered by the thought of being placed in that position. I know that even though I feel fear I have to move forward anyway. I'm learning that it just takes practice, and that although I'm new to this it doesn't mean that I can't become great at it. We won't know what we are capable of until we try. So lets just "feel the fear, but do it anyways."
