I have written often here about our need to overcome our existence ruled by fear and in recent weeks I have been having ongoing conversations with some truly beautiful souls about the origination of fear and as to whether or not God created fear. First let me define what the truth of God is to me; God is synonymous with Infinity, with Love, with Life, with all that is, was and ever will be created; all things we have not the ability, nor will we ever have the ability to fully comprehend, to believe is other is to have massive ego screaming in your ear. So now that I have shared with you what I believe God is, let me share with you my thoughts on fear. I believe that God did create fear, but not as a punishment to keep us from Love, but as a choice for us to learn from and exercise our freewill with. For how would we learn to define, understand and appreciate light if there was not dark, how could we define, understand and appreciate Love if there was not fear. Look at it this way if you were given a test and all the answers were true you wouldn't need to take the test for all the answers would already have been given to you, there would be no need to question further and without a choice of answers there would be no freewill to exercise. Make sense so far. Where we got a little off the path is when we became the lazy kids in class, who just went down the test answering false to every question, without reading the question - and don't tell me you never did that. We have gone through our existence up till now answering fear for every question, never seeming to understand we could just as easily answer Love. I am sure early on that served a purpose as we really had very little to guide our early remembering other than fear. We would touch fire, learned it hurt, become afraid it, then gradually learn to master it and use it for the most part responsibly. So without that early fear we would have probably just laid down in the fire and thought, "heat feel good, why skin melting" and that would have been the end of our time here. Now our understandings have evolved however and we do need to lean so heavily on the crutch of fear any longer, we can tear down our monuments to it and destroy the tools of its implementation. We can choose now for every answer Love, for Love is the answer that serves Life's process eternally. Will there always be fear, yes so long as there are things we do not know - which will be forever and so long as we have freewill - which to will be forever, there will be the choice of fear and that is neither bad nor good it just is. Even the some of the angels chose fear over Love, when God asked them to serve man before God. In fact so great was some of the angels fear of this unknown man thing, that they chose it over there Love of God. So you see no matter how much we evolve and remember there will always be an infinite amount left to learn and fear will always be there as the choice. Just not as permanent way to be, but as gentle reminder to get back on the path to Love.

I Love fear, for it gives me choice, proves my freewill and defines the glory and divine beauty of Love!

But I will forevermore endeavor to answer true, for Love and false for fear, for fear while a useful tool to remember by, is false, for there is nothing in the truth that is Love, to fear

“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”  ~ John Lennon

“Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity.”  ~ Paulo Coelho
