Fear

13 Sep

The below video was created by my dear friend Amon Focus. Its set to Jazmine Sullivan’s song Fear and quite simply…is a monster masterpiece that is incredible, POWERful and therapeutic art! It struck me to the core and had to share. Truly inspiring. For anyone struggling with fear this one is for you and if your not…it’s still for you too. In addition, I thought I would make it extra sweet by sharing the excerpt below and a couple of scriptures on fear. Great marriage between the three. As Always With Luvh, LPH!

Our Deepest Fear –  A Return To Love, a book by motivational speaker and author Marianne Williamson. 

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us.
It is not just in some; it is in everyone.

And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously give
other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

Scriptures on Fear – Be fearless and know that God has given you the power!

1 John 4:18 (Amplified Bible)
18There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love’s complete perfection].

 Isaiah 41:10 (King James Version)
10Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
