Ending All Fears

If our faith be strong
Resolve rock solid
Love unwavering
Why is there then doubt
Wherefrom comes our fear

The truth is this
Ego pursues
Until desire
Is extinguished

Cessation
Is the key 
To be free

Desire
Mirrors

Fear

My faith is always with God, and I am to enjoy all I have on earth, and knowingly with all my heart, nothing is worth more than God’s love... Thank you :)

Thanks Akkina! A line of thought ... What comes first, faith or realisation? Is true faith feasible without wisdom? Is not wisdom granted by grace? For grace to descend, we must open ourself ... that means letting go of what we cling to ... which is attachment, a coin having two faces, fear and desire
