Ananias was afraid to visit Saul, the man known for arresting believers. He went anyway. Fear isn’t a no.

Fear is information about risk, not a verdict on whether to go. It tells you the thing matters and that you could get it wrong, and both of those can be true of something worth doing. Courage has never meant arriving without nerves. It means your feet move while the nerves are still talking.

Think of the thing you keep almost doing: the question, the tryout, the apology. Do it this week while still scared rather than waiting to stop being scared. The waiting is the part that never ends.
