Fear is Forgetting to Trust

Sometimes your job is to listen to the “quiet.”
Hear the stillness.
To be aware of stillness, you must be still.
Being still invites richness into your life that you cannot imagine when in a hurried, rushed state.
If you are not familiar with this deep, inner quiet, you may fear it.
The fear creates activity, which destroys the stillness.
Let yourself experience the fear.
Go through the state of not trusting, not knowing.
Go through the unknowing and find the spark of light, the spark of God’s love within you.
Let in the glow of God’s love and allow the light to become brighter.
Breathe in the light until it fills your entire being!
Now listen to the quiet.
Let the stillness permeate every aspect of your being.
Hear no sound.
Let the stillness heal you from the inside out, on all levels of your being.
Notice how simple everything is.
Notice how powerful the stillness is.
Notice how full this stillness is.
Notice as you begin to trust the stillness, the fear is gone.
There is no fear in the stillness of God’s love.
And should you forget and become afraid, simply be still and breathe in the light of love.
