I am excited to introduce you to a series that begins today and continues for the next eight weeks with three of my incredible friends. As of now, I plan to share a “Lessons from the Lake” Video on the topic as well. Check out both videos, the first is the introduction to the series, and the second is a little bit about the topic my friend Mary Geisen wrote about today.
Together we will share insight, challenges, and our faith through our journeys of perseverance. Please join myself, Mary Geisen, Holly Barrett, and Patricia Krank as we learn from each other and share encouragement with our own stories of perseverance.

Perseverance – Bravely Overcoming Fear
By Mary Geisen
I stood at the bottom looking up, shading my eyes to see the top. “You got this”, I said to myself. The rest of the group congregated nearby to hear the directions from the leaders. I look again to where my destination lies and vaguely hear, “it’s about a mile and a half to the top.” A thought crosses my mind. “I walk farther than that daily. No problem”!
Confidence and smiles grace the faces of those around me. I plaster a smile on my face and begin the trek up the side of the volcano. After a few minutes my courage and confidence turns to fear. Will I make it to the top? Do I want to climb to the top and will I make it before the sun sets? The perseverance I embraced minutes ago now looks impossible and what seemed easy became challenging. …

2. Do you wonder if God still speaks today? Do you wonder if He would ever speak to you personally? Do you long to hear the voice of God in your life?
Have your read other books on hearing from God, but long for hands on practical application? or are you looking for ways to move you forward hearing from God?
If you answered YES to any of those questions, then I have exactly what you need. I now have an online e-course designed to equip you in understanding that God still speaks today, and He longs to speak directly to you, through His word, and others. He longs to encourage you, strengthen you and comfort you. The training on this site, is fully based on Scripture, and taken from my training manual Releasing God’s heart through Hearing His Voice.
I have been teaching these classes internationally for the last 10+ years equipping and training believers in discerning the Ways God speaks. God is speaking, Can you Hear Him?

Thanks for sharing your series on perseverance at Literacy Musing Mondays. I have to admit that fear has definitely been something I’ve struggled with throughout my life. Yes, it’s difficult, more like impossible, to have fear and faith residing side by side! Thankful for the Holy Spirit who helps me overcome my fears. 🙂
Brandi – thanks for stopping by and sharing – yes fear is a nasty little booger that needs to just be gone! i too am so very thankful for the Holy Spirit and His help in overcoming ALL my Fears as Psalms 34 says. Blessings
