Conquering Your Fear

How to overcome fear?  That is a question I am living out the answer to everyday of my life. I am continuously remembering my connection to the presence of God or the divine energy within and around me. The same energy dwells in you and in every living being, including inanimate objects. To overcome our fears, it is important to become aware of, to acknowledge, and to understand the energetic or metaphysical forces in and around us.
Topics surrounding unseen realities is of great debate. People question the exsistence of God; and if there is a God why are people suffering. While there are others who just don’t believe that God exists. To grasp the knowledge of the unseen or possibilities of reality, one must have a willing heart and an open mind. In turn, the ability to allow fear to enter and exit your reality without attachment requires a knowing that fear is false evidence appearing real.

Having a knowing of the unseen allows an awareness and recognition of life phenomenon. The things we take for granted we become grateful for. For example, when I look at plants and trees I recognized our connection. I breathe out carbon dioxide, plants and trees absorb carbon dioxide.  I breathe in oxygen, oxygen is a byproduct released by plants and tree. How amazing is that?! I am part of and connected to the divine energy and source of all life. We can then begin to acknowledge God or the divine energy ,by expressing gratitude and sharing our gratitude with others through compassion, love, kindness, respect, admiration and more positive emotions.
What does all of this have to do with conquering fear? Well if you are part of and connected to the divine essence of all existence, what do you have to fear? Understanding, being aware and acknowledging the divine power of God’s energy, through which all living things exist, causes a shift in perception. How we perceive ourselves and the world around us will change for the better. Our beliefs, confidence, courage, thoughts, actions and emotions will guide us to follow the divine paths we visualize in our mind, heart and spirit.   
Know that it is okay to feel fear but it is not okay to focus on fear. Make a conscious decision when facing fear to move forward with positive thoughts such as, what valuable life lesson am I about to learn or what positive outcomes I can create. If not, fear can steal your dreams if you let it control you. Fear can be paralyzing, which in most cases is a reaction verses a response to fear. Respond to fear knowing God’s divine energy or presence within you is limitless, therefore there is nothing you cannot do once you put your mind to it. Believe that the power within is great than the situation or circumstance you are facing in your life, and take action to start conquering your fears.
