I often suggest people ask the question: What would love do? When I answer that question for myself my response is often more expansive. As I was getting ready to write this post I thought: What would fear do?<\/p>\n

Fear creates conflict.
Fear causes us to feel the need to protect ourselves and defend our position.
Fear creates dogma and rules that impede our ability to change and grow spiritually.
Fear diminishes our ability to love.
Fear lessens our choices.
Fear stops us from seeing our limitless nature.<\/p>\n


\nFear cuts us off from the loving presence of the angels.
Fear destroys our ability to experience happiness and joy.
Fear causes us to react rather than choose how we want to respond.<\/p>\n

What else does fear do in your life?<\/p>\n

Prayer, faith, hope and angels can set you free. Imagine a life free of fear and filled only with love. What could love do in your life?<\/p>\n
