When we know, who walks beside us, on this path we have chosen, our fears fall from us.

Divine Love Beyond The Clouds Of Fear

Everyday somewhere a plane departs in the rain. The aircraft pulls away from the gate and takes its place in line to take off. Soon the engines spool up, the brakes released and the craft quickly gains speed, the passengers pushed back in their seats by the acceleration. The nose lifts as the cabin windows are obscured by a driving rain, then everything turns white as the plane enters the clouds. A few seconds pass and then it happens, bright sunshine bursts into the cabin, momentarily blinding in its intensity. The rain, darkness and shadows replaced with brilliance. In truth the sunshine was always there, it was merely obscured for a time.

When we find ourselves in the midst of a difficulty, clouds of fear placing us in shadow, the sunshine of God’s love in truth has never ceased. So by raising our consciousness through prayer and meditation we demonstrate over fear, raising ourselves above the clouds, standing in the light and love that was always there. Fear merely shadows, Divine Love truly dominate.

The Proper Perspective Concerning Fear

“We are sure God wants us to be happy, joyous and free. We cannot subscribe to the belief that this life is a vale of tears, though it was just that for many of us. But it is clear that we made our own misery. God didn’t do it. Avoid then the deliberate manufacture of misery, but if trouble comes, cheerfully capitalize it as an opportunity to demonstrate His omnipotence” (Alcoholics Anonymous pg 133).

The only power that can hold us back, regardless of the challenge, is giving in to self-centered fear. Living on the Spiritual Basis does not mean that life’s challenges no longer exist or are any less painful in the moment, but instead of allowing ourselves to drift into sorrow and morbid reflection, we turn to Him who has all knowledge and power for strength and direction, demonstrating over fear. Circumstances in our lives are not spiritual impediments, just different paths of enlightenment. This truth sets us free: We are not this flesh. We are eternal spirit, existing in this form for only a moment, our lives a series of moments in eternity, truly children of the Most High. Living on the Spiritual Basis affirms our connection to the miraculous, putting all things in their proper place and from this perspective we triumph over fear.
