As you begin to think about that \u2018what if\u2019 moment, I invite you to rephrase it in prayer and release it into God\u2019s care. Fear often accompanies moments of uncertainty and so it is natural to fear the unknown, however it is not okay to allow this fear to trap you into negative thoughts. Today, like Daniel, faith over fear. Do not allow the \u2018what ifs\u2019 to cloud your mind, blinding you from believing, trusting, and holding on what you know to be true.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel faced fear when interpreting King Nebuchadnezzar\u2019s dream, yet he responded with faith, not panic. He trusted that God would give him wisdom and clarity. Likewise, we can choose faith over fear, knowing that God has already prepared answers to the questions we cannot solve on our own.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>:\u00a0<em>Heavenly Father, I release my fears to You.
