Fearless or Faithless?

We have to decide which one we're going to be.

Fearless or faithless, but we can't be both.

Either we're going to be fearless, which means operating in faith -- the trust and believe that God will bring great things to light as we put all our hope in Him. Or faithless, in which we're going to put all our trust and belief in man. We can't do both. We can't say when things go this way we're going to be fearless, but if things go that way we will be of little faith. One of In Sharon's Heart's theme scriptures when it comes to speaking faith over difficulties is Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." It helps to walk around and say power-words throughout our discomfort. I know that's easier said then done, but we can do it.

In fact I had to do it just last week when I was in Nashville. I had gone to the wrong event address, because I had gotten it mixed up with the place I was supposed to be. I found myself in an unfamiliar place, literally. Although I was uncomfortable and could have gotten a little nervous, I decided early on that I was not going to get all stressed out about it. I was going to have faith that things would turn out ok and they did. I just continued to encourage myself in the Lord (by talking to myself with positive self talk and scriptures) and I ended up at the event without missing too much.

You may be saying to yourself how corny and overrated that story seems, but I'm telling you it works to have faith in the little struggles and the big ones. It's what works for me and I refuse to walk around defeated thinking the worse is going to happen. It's just more effective to be fearless (faithful) than the other way around. The choice is ours.

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up. We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves. I used to do that once upon a time and that sorrowful thinking is for the birds. We don’t have to be down. We can get up and get going even if we start small. In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines. Momentum and movement will help us get and maintain a position of strength to do what God says we can do.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa
