Every one of us have one hidden fear that though we sometimes don’t want to admit it, but its there and it eats deep into our hearts. Most of my own hidden fear have to do with a lot of ‘what ifs” and on the long run I find myself on my knees asking the Lord for strength to go on often the things we even fear don’t usually come to pass but we must have crippled ourselves with fear. How do you deal with your hidden fears deal with my own through prayers and taking steps.

Hello, Byola2871. It is true that we all have fears sometimes. However, this fear is not with us at every moment. There are times when we forget about the things we fear. There are times when we won't care about anything that we fear. There is only one way to deal with fear, and I believe that it is by facing them. If you do not face them, they will take you over. They will make you hopeless and get you panicked. You must face them and realize that no fear should be big. Fear is a really bad feeling, that will stop you from surpassing your own limits. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

Fear happens when we value something and we know we can lose it. It can be with a bill, because you know you will lose money, or it can be with your own life. It can be with a marriage, that you are afraid of losing... Something like that. Therefore, we usually imagine it, but it is not happening really. Though there are times when they do happen. That's when we face them.

prayers are the best way to get strength and fight with your fears..also reading good books and listening to soft and good music may help...i try to talk and socialise when in pain and fear...also watching a comedy show helps. Or reading about people who have fought against all odds and won their rights inspires me and helps me in my fear... thanks happy mylotting..

I've just realized recently that my biggest, by far, hidden fear is ending up along in life and simply just not living my life to the fullest. What is life, really, if you're not even living it? Only you can control your life, and only you can control your fears. What we are given in life is so precious, many don't realize how precious until it's to late and those things we are given are gone forever with no return. I believe the best way to deal with and face your fears it to pray for strength and to take action. God will allow to happen what is truly meant to happen. And only you can make a difference if you CHOOSE to make a difference. I'm afraid that if I don't face my own fears sooner rather than later that they will overtake my life and soon all I will be living in is fear. It's so hard to look past your fears and look toward brighter things in life, but it must be done in order to live!
