In an effort to push fear away and remain spiritually steady, I tended to rely on my calling or my public platform as a way to release peace in chaotic times. 

But it will never work. 

It’s not what we are called to or gifted to do that brings peace or redirects a situation. 

That will never work. 

What we are called to do is not the same as who we are to become, and fearless and calm obedience to God is the only ongoing remedy. 

What you do is not the same as who you are becoming.
