Careful or Fearful?

"The Lord will deliver me."
1 Samuel 17:37

Fearful people often excuse their fears as just being careful... are you careful or just plain scared?

Careful is thoughtful	Fearful is emotional
Careful is fueled by information	Fearful is fueled by imagination
Careful calculates risk	Fearful avoids risk
Careful wants to achieve success	Fearful wants to avoid failure
Careful is concerned about progress	Fearful is concerned about protection

Leaders instill courage in the hearts of those who follow - not just by their words but by their actions.
