This is a guest post by Karen Allison.<\/strong> Karen is a long-time friend. God is using her to reach young women so I want to introduce her to you…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Do you remember growing up when you heard the words, I double dog dare you? When you heard them, there was no way you weren\u2019t going to do whatever it was they were daring you to do.. Whatever it was, you were gonna do it. No possible way you were going to let your friends see you scared. It didn\u2019t matter what they asked you to do, you did it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I got to thinking about the double dog dare the other day and how I would have the courage to step out and do most anything asked. And how as an adult I don\u2019t seem to have that same courage.<\/p>\n When did it leave?<\/p>\n What happened to me to make me so afraid, or even scared?<\/p>\n Even scared to step out and do what God has asked me to do?<\/p>\n When did I allow what people thought of me stop me from stepping out and doing the things that take a little courage to do? I mean it\u2019s God! Not some person who wants to harm me. Not someone who doesn\u2019t want the best for me.<\/p>\n It\u2019s God! The Creator of the universe. The One that knows the best plan for me and wants to see and help me succeed. The One who wants to accomplish His will through me.<\/p>\n What is it God is asking you to step out in faith in do? What is it that God has planned for you that you are just a little too nervous to even begin to think about how you, little old you, could ever do?<\/p>\nThe Double Dog Dare<\/h2>\n
Made Me Think<\/h2>\n
Let Me Ask You This<\/h2>\n
