*The Fact of Fear  

*The [[Fact]] of Fear  

   

   

The times are upon us now where there is high drama everywhere.  The fear has not abated.  Some kinds of fear have peaked but other kinds of fear hastened in to take its place and so there is still tremendous fear facing us and when we face the fear of the community and its individuals, our work is compounded because we must work first to reduce their fear, for when people are in a state of fear they are closed to adventure, they are closed to logic and reason. They are in fear mode. This is a very emotional state of mind and being.  Even though they may appear to be quite calm on the surface, there is great fear in the collective psyche at this time.

Be mindful of that when you go out into the area to be about the father’s business.  You have the same natural animal fears as anyone because you are animal origin beings and many fears are simply there because they are designed to help you survive, but you know that your fears are manageable. There are many who refuse to accept that they have fear; they have not yet begun to manage fear, and they are in denial they have fear. They can become belligerent and hostile without much provocation. So even though you have your own fears to deal with, be assured that there are others whose angst is far worse.

Be kind.  Kindness is very difficult to muster when you are feeling put upon.  Sometimes it seems as though kindness in times of great stress is ludicrous, that you must be firm.  And it is true, you must be firm, but you can also be kind.  These two things: firmness and kindness, will help put to rest the fears of others -- those invisible fears that would do harm -- not intentionally but as an impulsive reaction to what they perceive is coming at them.

Before you go out the door in the morning, or in the afternoon, or in the evening, before you open yourself up to your environment, be sure to invite your spirit helpers to go with you and be mindful of their presence with you.  As you get in your car, as you drive past the corner store, as you settle yourself into the ride, as you park at your destination, and as you approach your task, take your spirit helpers, your spiritual consciousness with you so that you are armed and prepared, and so that you can be calm and respond sanely and serenely when you interrupt or interfere with the lives of others simply by presenting yourself.  To those in fear this can be considered an act of aggression.

I almost feel I should apologize for the caliber of my words this evening. They are hardly words you want to hear; they are not encouraging a high state of spiritual consciousness such as one might anticipate with rose-colored glasses or blind faith. They are really very much the concerns of the human, but you see you are human, and as I mentioned earlier, my task is dealing with you as you are and whereas you might not like to think about your fears and the fears of others, you would appreciate my efforts if you could see yourselves as we see you.

Now, let me hasten to add that we also see you as tremendously courageous people. The courage that you manifest because of your faith is often inspirational. As you have been told for many years, your enthusiasm, the inspiration you bring, your buoyancy of spirit, make our lives easier, our work easier and the lives of your fellows easier.  And it is merciful to try to make life easier and more meaningful for those you love, for those you care for, even those who are strangers, because it is “Jesusonian.”

And yet it is also good to be mindful of the circumstances in which you live, be aware of the signs of the times, and the circumstances today -- sociologically speaking -- are strained, and humanity is under duress.  Help put their minds at ease. Reassure them that you want nothing from them. You want nothing unreasonable. You have no expectations. Except, of course, the natural course of business as it is carried on, and even there, be merciful. There are some who have no work; there are some who are losing their homes to foreclosures through no fault of their own; there are some who are leaving for war or returning from war that are embattled night and day, as are their families.  The elections coming would indicate that no one can be trusted, that your leaders are all failures, out to deceive you, and these are not words that provide comfort or poise to people who long to hear the simple truths the Master spoke of in ways that mean  something to them, so simplify your approach in your ministry.

Remember the lessons of Teacher Will: smile at people; help them by opening the door for them.  Simple acts of kindness go a long way toward making the world a better place in which to live. In truth, if it isn’t one crisis it’s another, and there will be many, many moons before this planet settles down to a serene and peaceable existence. But you who are forerunners of a new way of life, one which invites the joy, the order, the security and the plentiful affection of divinity, are able to set the pace for tomorrow.  Contribute to the making of the future today.  It need not be grand, your contribution. It may not even necessarily be inspired or illuminated, but simple acts of kindness that bring peace of mind and a moment of restfulness is a gift, the same kind of gift we enjoy here in this moment together in the light line broadcast where we are all at ease and at peace knowing we are in a safe place with loving companions and wise overseers.
