Romans 8:33-34​

³³ Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. ³⁴ Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.​

​Mostly 1: Scared of not being good enough.​

Your deepest fear is the worry that you’re not good enough. Whether that be in work, relationships, or elsewhere, you’re always second-guessing whether you’re being as good as you can be. This second-guessing means you work extremely hard, but that doesn’t stop the doubt from creeping in now and then. But this worry is common, and as long as you’re doing the best that you can, that’s what really matters.

​Mostly 2: Scared of never being truly happy.

Your deepest fear is never finding happiness or satisfaction in life. You often find yourself wondering what else is out there in the world and sometimes look around at what you have and worry that there’ll be nothing more to add to your life. You find that you can be restless, and when you achieve or reach one goal, you’re immediately on the move to try to reach the next. The best thing you can do is to allow yourself time to feel pride in what you’ve achieved before moving on to something new.​

​Mostly 3: Scared of being alone

The thing that scares you the most is being on your own. It could be in the immediate sense of always wanting to be surrounded by people, or in the wider sense of not having a significant relationship now or in the future. On a deeper level, you sometimes worry that there’s no perfect person for you and that while other people are finding their soulmates, you’ll be left behind. The real secret is that everybody has these thoughts from time to time, and you’re not alone. And while you’re worrying there’s no perfect person for you, your future soulmate is probably wondering the same.​

Mostly 4: Scared of death.​

​

Your deepest fear is death. This comes in a number of fears, whether it be fearing the death of somebody close to you, or fearing dying yourself. The thought is morbid and rightfully scary, but you should reverse this fear into making sure you appreciate the good in life, the things you have, and the future ahead of you.

​​Mostly 5: Scared of failing and not succeeding.

Your deepest fear is a failure. The thought of not succeeding or achieving your goals and dreams lingers over you a lot and it’s always in the back of your mind. Sometimes you work extra hard to make sure that doesn’t happen, but sometimes you can cave and fall into the mindset of “what’s the point of even trying?” Everybody fails at things in life though, and the beauty of it is you can learn from your mistakes and try again. After all, some of the most powerful and richest people in the world failed before they succeeded.
