A scene from a classic movie demonstrates this nicely: Indiana Jones is on the brink of finding the Holy Grail. He has surmounted monumental difficulties to reach this point but now stands looking down a chasm that appears impossible to cross, but he must cross it or his father will die. He opens his "father's " book looking for inspiration and reads “Step out in faith.” Closing his eyes, with fear and trepidation, he steps out into the void. As his foot lands on something solid, he discovers the bridge had always been there, merely beyond his limited vision. Faith is like that, so trust in God and refuse to entertain that inner voice screaming: Are you nuts! There’s no frakking bridge!
When we know, who walks beside us, on this path we have chosen, our fears fall from us.
