In her book Inside Out, author Kimberly Daniels said that “when we attempt to
go around things in life instead of going through them, we keep the same
mind-set. The result is that our
mind-set stays un-renewed in the areas of life where we are being challenged.”
I am a classic
avoider; I own that. The problem is that
I never realized how much this character trait hurt my development in school,
at work, and in life. I had
the spirit of arrested development that denies any growth.
Now I’m starting
to put myself out there more and more each day.
I’m taking on more challenging duties at work. I can no longer allow fear to rule my life
and cause me to avoid new things. I
admit I’m still nervous but as it says in the book of 2nd Corinthian
5:7, we walk by faith, not by sight.
