Overcoming Fear: A Lesson from Gideon | MIND MONSTERS

Fear - a Mind Monster that often paralyzes us. While anxiety and worry might seem similar, fear has a distinct intensity. Anxiety is a lingering unease about future possibilities, worry keeps our thoughts spinning, but fear is immediate, tied to real and present danger. For example, anxiety is feeling uneasy about dogs, worry is mentally rehearsing how to avoid them, and fear is when one charges, and you run for your life! Today, we’ll explore how fear works in our minds and bodies, how it’s amplified by our environment, and how, like Gideon, we can face it with God’s help.
