Fear

The second time I knew a word I didn’t consciously know was just a few days later. I’d just woken up. Soft and sleepy, not suspecting magic afoot. Suddenly in my minds eye I saw the word Yare. It was closely followed by the scripture ‘don’t fear, I am with you’. The word fear was highlighted to me and then it was all gone, as if nothing had happened.

Once again I found myself looking up a word that was ancient and unfamiliar. Sure enough the word Yare means fear in the scripture I’d seen. A scripture written thousands of years ago. I couldn’t believe it. I literally couldn’t believe it. Why me? Why now? Why say these impossible things to someone who was full to the brim with fear? It sounded like an impossible task.

Once again I was silenced. Whatever I had been taught was fueling my fear. This guidance wanted to vanquish it forever. The only reason given was because I was not alone. Once again I was being asked to put my trust in this unseen force. To trust so fully and completely that there was no room for fear. I’d never witnessed this in another person nor heard it taught. Was it even possible? I couldn’t deny what this voice was showing me about the effects of knowing your Oneness. A complete lack of fear. Incredible. Who wouldn’t want that.
