What a glorious December Day the FAN Anglers captains and volunteers were blessed with for the 3rd qualifier on the season held at Lake LBJ Yacht Club and Marina Presented by Kistler Rods. For many of the 180 student anglers fishing this event secured their berth for the 2024/25 FAN Championship with over $15,000 in scholarships, prizes and critical points for the AOY standings
Stepping way out of her comfort zone and into obedience to share her testimony on how God does not want us to live in fear was my amazing wife, Stephanie.
She shared how fear had kept her from her dreams and who God created her to be and how she found strength through God to break the pattern of fear.
Three practices she uses to overcome fear:
- Affirmation of identity in Christ through scripture
- Reflection- Remebering past instances where God help you overcome fear
- Gratitude- Combate fear with gratitiude- Our brains cannot process fear and gratitude at the same time
The result of trusting in God, is fear’s influence diminishes and no longer stops us from being who God created us to be.
As you overcome your fear, you will find joy in Gods plan for you.
I will share the video once it is posted – Thank you Stephanie
