Peoples Greatest Enemy

Peoples Greatest Enemy

Outside of being our own worst enemy at times, it is said that people’s greatest enemy is fear. Fear is behind failure, sickness and poor human relations. Millions of people are afraid of the past, the future, old age, insanity, and death. But fear is a thought in your mind. This means that you are afraid of your own thoughts.

A small child can be paralyzed with fear when a friend or sibling says there is a monster under the bed who will grab him in the night. But when the parents turn on the lights and show him there is no monster, he is freed from fear. The fear in the mind of the child was every bit as real as if there were really a monster there. He was healed of a false thought in his mind. The thing he feared did not exist.

In the same way, most of our fears have no reality. They are merely a conglomeration of sinister shadows, and shadows have no reality.

Step outside of your fear and let faith take you to a new level. Even if you’ve failed at something in the past it doesn’t mean you need to stop trying. Failure is natures way of building lasting success and you were not created to live in fear but live life in the creative where fear has no place.

You are a champion! Now make it a fearless great day!

“I wanted air”, the boy told him.

Socrates nodded slowly. “When you want wisdom as much as you wanted air when you were immersed in the water, he said, “you will receive it.”
