10 Biggest Fears

I found a blog that gives a lists of prompts to choose from and you pick one or more of them and write your post! So I've decided to jump in and give it a try, especially since I don't really have anything to say today. So you can go to
Mama's Losin' It and get the details if you'd like to join. I picked "10 Biggest Fears", so here I go:

1. My children meeting the Lord before I do. I can't imagine losing a child and I've read many blogs about others who have and are very strong about it, but I don't know how I, personally, would be able to. So I definetly fear that.

2. I fear anybody not knowing Jesus! I really do have a strong fear for the people who don't know our God! It's very scary to me! Especially my own family and friends.

3. I fear car wrecks. This fear has been brought on at an even stronger level after all the car incidents that have happened here lately. But I've always thought about it. I can't help but think about everyday as I am driving down the road and watching people passing by!

4. A very big fear of mine also is: Public speaking. I have never been good at talking in front of a crowd! In college, my last semester, we had to do a presentation in which we all had to speak by ourselves...completely alone...up there in front of lots of people!! During practice for this presentation, I had a full blown panic attack and had to go outside. Luckily, the day of the presentation I was able to do mine...I wasn't very good at it..but there were no panic attacks, no passing out, no crying, etc. so I was relieved for that!

5. I fear not finding a career that I am truly satisified with. I want to wake up every morning and love what I do. I want to help others (I am a social work major after all). I think this fear is greater at the moment also, being I still haven't found a job at all, much less one that I love!

6. I fear my children not having satisfying, happy lives growing up. I want my children to be happy and have fun as they grow up. I don't want them to be depressed, teased, or fail at things they love to do! Life's too short not to enjoy it! So hopefully I will help my children to live happy lives. I also want them to grow up living for the Lord and knowing how important it is to serve Him.

7. At this present moment, I fear the election. I fear what will happen in this world after this election. I hope and pray that whomever is elected does this country justice. But for some reason, I have a very eerie, in my gut, feeling that things aren't going to go so well.

8. I fear closed in spaces. I do not like to feel trapped in any shape, form, or fashion. I don't like to be held down. I don't like to be closed in tight quarters. I have had panic attacks when situations like these have occurred and I just don't like it one stinkin' bit!

9. I fear heights. I fear when I am at great heights that I will fall and I think about that falling the whole time. So I prefer to not go to far above ground level if any way possible.

10. I fear snakes. I don't like snakes of any kind, even the ones that are green and harmless. I don't want anything to do with any of them and would prefer them to not get in my path. They are just plain creepy!!

So there they are...I'm sure I could think of more, but that's it for now! Join in if you'd like, I would love to read what others fear.
