A few days ago I sat in a meeting and listened to smarter men than me discuss the future. I listened as some asked questions. I listened as some declared their appreciation.

Reflecting on the meeting and the conduct of those in the room, I wrote seven of my greatest fears and thought I would share them with you.

My greatest fear is...

1.) That I some how thwart the ORIGINAL plan God has for me by becoming a clone of everybody else.

2.) That I would stop asking questions and just go with the flow.

3.) That I'll regard the voice of men of greater importance than the voice of God.

4.) That I'll lean on technology and the intellect of men to guide me instead of the Holy Spirit.

5.) That I will settle for an organized church experience instead of a relationship with Jesus.

6.) That I'll let rejection from other men keep me from doing what I've been called to do.

7.) That I'll place people around me that think exactly like me, instead of people that will challenge and grow me.

What are your greatest fears?
