Scared

Dear Reader,
The day before yesterday, mom asked if I was scared. Scared about what you may ask? Well, when she first asked I wasn't sure as to what she might be referring to either. But I thought about it, after I had told her that I wasn't scared just angry, that the truth is...I am scared. I'm scared for her, I'm scared about what come out of the two of us knowing the date that marks a year of the day that changed both of our lives forever, is just around the corner...Look at a calendar and you'll see that the 23rd of July is this coming Thursday.
But most importantly, I am the most scared to show how I am really feeling, whether it be in reference to the accident or how I am doing academically. I am scared to show those I feel I need to be the strongest for, that I am scared. I fear that if I reveal these emotions that it will reveal a weakness in me. I have always fought to be the strongest that I can be and showing that I am weak and broken never seemed to be an option for me.
I am not willing to reveal to God that I need Him the most right now...He knows this already but it's important that I tell Him. Why am I running from the one thing I know deep down inside is the answer to all of my life's questions? I don't know but it's really something I need to figure out...

Dear Katie,

I found you! Thanks for sharing this blog with me. Fear is something I've been grappling with too, but God met me and told me outright, "No fear, friend." It's through God that we can let go of our tears and fears...I am praying for you as you work through this!! God's working in you...I saw it today. :)

Love,
Jo
