| BkIII:15.III.4 | There is no reason to fear anything or anyone. Once you accept the truth that you are not an isolated, autonomous self separate from God, and begin to realize that if God is one with you and you with God, then you are God in God and therefore nothing can happen to you that is not perfect, holy, and beautiful. People may not understand you; this generally happens because where the world sees sin, you begin to see opportunities to forgive, bless, and spread more love to the world. You begin to realize with increasing clarity that behind fear is truth. You can begin to see beyond the obvious since you live submerged in the depths of life wherein lies truth. The vision of Christ is now your only way of seeing. |
