“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment” (1 John 4:18 NIV).
You’re capable of far more than you understand right now. You just need someone to believe in you. Here's some good news for you: Someone already does. When someone believes in you unconditionally, as God does, it releases you to take great risks. You have unfulfilled dreams in your life because you’ve been scared to death to go after them. You’ll die with unfulfilled dreams unless you let one truth really sink in: God loves you unconditionally. No matter who you are and no matter what’s in your past, God believes in you far more than you believe in yourself. That means fear doesn’t have to stop you anymore. The Bible says, “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment” (1 John 4:18 NIV). Think you’ve blown it? Ready to throw in the towel on your dream? God’s love says to not be afraid to give it another shot. Maybe there was a time in your life that you worked on a project, but needed help from someone to help you finish it. Your heavenly Father is telling you that today. You may have messed up. You may feel as if your dream is dead. But God says to you today, “It’s okay. We can start over, and this time I’ll help you.” And when God says he’ll help, you can do anything.
