When you have faith in anything or anyone, you know longer fear the unknown with regard to that person or thing. If you fear your neighbor’s dog, you are more than likely not going to walk right up to it, extend your hand and start petting it. However, if you have faith that the dog will not bite you, then you have no problem walking right up to it and petting it until it rolls over and forces you to rub its belly. I mention in my book No Law, that I often felt that I was in over my head with the writing process. Yet, I continued because my faith in the process and what I was doing was stronger than any fear that I had. Will I be judged? Likely. I expect that people will start looking for reasons to try to discredit me. This does not worry me in the least. Brendon Burchard calls this the success tax. Once you have a little success there are going to be those around you that will attempt to discredit you, judge you, ridicule you, etc. You can cower to fear, or you can continue to push forward through faith.
If you want to develop faithfulness, learn to dance with your fear.
