Living Within the Tension of Love and Fear. 💖🦋😳

August 6, 2023

The true self

Locked away within

In the center of the center of the center your heart.

The false self

Holds the key.

To keep you safe and protect that which you hold dear

For fear–you build walls around

Paradise.

Even fear desires love

So strong is the attraction for

Wholeness. For becoming One.

And love also desires to hold fear

Carefully. Tenderly, with understanding and compassion in

His hands as one holds a butterfly

Knowing–she is free to fly away.

God created the butterfly to be exactly as she is.

Beautiful. Fragile. Fleeting.

A memory deep within–

Psyche remembering her true self.

Confession is to tell the truth.

I am frightened.

I am frightened.

I am frightened.

Until the truth abiding within your heart

Weeps for the pure

Joy of forgiveness!

Here am I! Always I am. With you. Be as an innocent lover and let the warmth of my light penetrate deep within the darkness of your uncertainty–and know. Become settled within and cast your net of doubts upon Me! Catch me.

I set you free and I am the One to whom you can safely return. Always.

Fly away and become

All that I created

You to be.

Taste the sweet nectar of life and then–again and again–return and be continually renewed for I AM the strength and refuge of your heart.

To live within the tension of

Love and Fear is

To be

Alive.

With love and gratitude for all of life.
