October 1, 2009 Freedom from fear and peace that follows

His Love never ceases to set us free.

We continually seek to be set free from our external pursuits for self gratification whether drugs, alcohol, sex, money, food or any pain numbing avoidance or addiction, the world's illusions to avoid pain. Addictions numb our ability to 'experience' Love. Freedom and peace come when we recognize the lie and no longer exchange the Truth for a lie. It is Truth which sets us free. Being open and transparent about ourselves, opens our eyes to see we are all sinners-disconnected from God and each other. Life's journey invites us to hold on for dear 'life' to 'live' and heal with each other, 'together'. Together we experience His amazing healing....God gave us each other, not to avoid or isolate ourselves from each other but to embrace each other, not to judge or exalt ourselves above each other but to see we are the same, with the same pain and the same fears. We live transparent from the inside-out. We are reformed, rejuvenated and reborn.

1 John 4:18 There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life - fear of death, fear of judgment - is one not yet fully formed in love. 19 We, though, are going to love - love and be loved. First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first. (The Message)

"His Light shines will all else fades.
Never ending your Glory goes beyond all fame....my souls cries out"
