I didn't realize it at first, but I had let fear and perfectionism stop me from doing what God had called me to do. God told me to create WHEW Tribe to encourage and lift up other women; to let them know they were not alone. I made excuses: I don't have time, I don't know what to write, I don't know what they need, and on and on... But the truth is... I was afraid of what some people might say if I wrote what was really on my heart. I was afraid of the criticism I might get if I didn't write properly, using the right grammar and punctuation. Because goodness knows it's been a long time since I was in school. I was afraid of the negative comments I might get; of the theological debates that might ensue if I shared my beliefs. I am not a theologian by any means. Fear. It's such a powerful thing. A crippling thing. But do you know what? All of those things I was afraid of weren't even REAL ! They were all thing...
