Fear is a four letter word and we where taught the four letter word are bad. When you are fearful or afraid take a walk with Jesus in Matthew 6:28-34(NIV) he says 28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. 

Just replace clothes with what you are afraid of. There is only one thing the you should be fearful of and that is God. But he is a loving God and he will help you through you fear just take a walk with him.  This should help.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGDOMCGichU

Courage

If you would have told me that I would fast for seven days. I would have said that you are crazy. If you would have told me that I would give the guy I like a letter saying that I like him and want to go out with him. I would have said that you are out of your mind. But all of these things are true. I know that what you are thinking that these things are not that big but to me they are huge. The things that scare us might seem small to the next person but to you it is the biggest thing in the world. I am in the middle of my seven day fast and the Lord has done so much in my life already and I know that he will do more.  I would not say that I found my courage or that God gave me courage to do these things.  I say that I faith in God and that is all the courage that I need. I do not know what God is planning for the rest of my fast but I faith that it will be good.
