Fear Is A Bluffer
We all began this journey standing by the side of the
road of Spiritual Awakening and destiny, deciding what to do. When we decide to
Live on the Spiritual Basis we move from the shoulder and into the vehicle of
our journey to freedom from the bondage of self. While standing on the shoulder
we were rationalizing and justifying why we are putting off taking the trip, all
the while watching vehicle after vehicle stop and pick up other travelers. Wishing
to embark ourselves but fearful of what the journey will entail. Fear would keep
us on the shoulder, a mustard seeds worth of faith gets us off it.
As with all travel, there are costs. The fare for this journey being
willingness, action in purpose, open-mindedness and honesty. Faith the motive
power of our vehicle. And though along the way we will come to know the Shining
Cities on the Hill of peace, serenity and freedom there is no “final”
destination, for our trip is never ending, always climbing to new heights of
awareness and understanding in Spirit as long as we remain teachable. Our
driver and guide? No less than the Miraculous, the very Creative Intelligence
that lies at the heart of everything, providing all we need in good measure to
make the journey.
Yes, it will be a long and often strange trip but the
only one that truly matters. Along the way the only real adversary, Fear, will keep
cajoling us, suggesting, even screaming at us to disembark for we really
shouldn’t trust the driver, we should climb out and sit by the side of the road
“to think” about ourselves, morbid reflection ascendant. By resisting the
adversary’s clarion call and trusting in God to guide us our freedom is
assured, the sights and vistas along the way remarkable beyond words, our continued
awakening in Spirit breathtaking, and if we remain diligent in the path we have chosen, Fears’ voice will become
quieter and quieter for we now know the truth: Fear is a bluffer.
