What needs to be
healed in all of us? Do you agree
that we all need help? I’m not talking only about physical or mental
limitations. I am talking about that crippling prison of deep, abiding fear
that is promoted everywhere. Call it anger, bitterness, racism, or rage. Put
any fancy, new label on it you like. The root of all of these negative
characteristics is fear, plain and
simple.
If we allow it, we will
give in to the fear of losing…
- Various freedoms
- Our comfortable lifestyle
- The basic necessities of life
- Our loved ones
- Our money
- Our individual or cultural identity
What is the
antidote to paralyzing fear? Love.1
John 4:18 tells us that perfect love
casts out all fear. The most appropriate reaction to fear is not more fear--or
anger--but love. How do we find the strength to react in such a difficult and unexpected
way? We model our personality after God’s
character.
I have been blessed
to have friends and supporters who are continually bringing me fresh wisdom.
Some of it is their knowledge, won through hard years of experience. Some of it
is found online. In this article, I will feature the profound words of online friend,
Little John as he typed them. For
the sake of clarity and conciseness, I have added headings and left out some of
the original text:
God is absolute love.
The overall plot and
theme of the book (the Bible) is of an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-aware and
all-present supernatural, eternal Deity of absolute love, who created us for
our mutual pleasure and delight, so that His [super]nature of love can be
present within us, (and) flow through us as His blood vessels.
God’s love deepens our wisdom.
When you experience
God’s presence in absolute reality, then you know the absolute way and the
absolute life. God is the God of absolute
love. God takes the knowledge you have and builds up understanding upon it.
God (love) will take you on many rocky paths to help gain understanding.
The pursuit of
understanding is wisdom and it is only after we take the understanding “to
heart” will it develop into wisdom. God (love) will take to to great depths and
apply much pressure, to transform your understanding into pearls of wisdom.
“We must go through
many tribulations in order to enter the kingdom of God.”—Acts 14:22
God’s love is in each of us.
After you know and
understand who, what and why eternal love (God) is and that you will never know
how He came to be, you see that true love gave us free will for one purpose
only, so that we will surrender to the impulse and inspiration (will) of love
within us.
Love heals all.
The power of absolute
love is that it can heal all wounds (including broken hearts.) It has the power over all atoms, particles
and molecules, to supernaturally provide…if it is a heartfelt desire of true
love (God.)
We have God’s character.
When God bestows the
glorious, supernatural spirit of true love’s presence, His true nature and
characteristics in absolute holiness (the Holy Ghost), upon you with absolute
peacefulness, absolute humility, absolute graciousness and gracefulness, He
gives you all the virtues, which are the characteristics of His love and makes
them your character, by making them all absolutely heartfelt. Thus you are made
in the image of the absolute virtuousness (righteousness) of God’s love.
He is the absolute,
true eternal [super]nature, of a love that is beyond your wildest imagination
and anyone’s ability to ever comprehend. His all-powerful, unrelenting,
unreserved, unadulterated, majestic love, that fills you to overflowing and
literally overwhelms your senses.
My Conclusion
The antidote
to the pervasive fear in the world is to give and receive the amazing love of
Christ. Spiritual light is the only way to chase away spiritual darkness, the
same as in the physical world.
