This plan will help you face your fears honestly without giving them all the space, do what is yours to do, and recover confidence when what stands before you seems far greater than your own strength.

Relying merely on God to act in the absence of your initiative will not work. Human efforts plus divine intervention is the winning formula.

A great finish is better than a good start!
