?Describe the fear-faith connection.

What will be an ideal response?


The more we believe that our lives are about something, that things happen for a reason, and that we are meant to benefit from the experience of our journey, the more courageous and less fearful we are when we are confronted with difficult situations. The more we are guided by fear, the weaker our faith. The stronger our faith, the less we fear. We are not talking about only a faith related to the belief in a higher power, but also about the faith you have in yourself and your abilities. Pushing through fear is less frightening than living with the underlying fear that comes with a feeling of helplessness. Underlying all of our fears is a lack of trust in our ability to handle something. We need to remember we can handle it. You will never overcome all your fears, but you can conquer the fears that prevent you from living your life to the fullest. Viewing life as an adventure and an opportunity to grow can help reduce the fear of venturing into new, unknown territory.
