Moving from Fear to Faith
Most of our inactions in life are based on fear, whether conscious or unconscious. Sometimes we can trace specific fears to certain incidents that happened early in life, and it often helps to do that, although it is not always necessary. Most of us have probably picked up some subset of the beliefs that say, “I am not lovable; I am unworthy, unnecessary; I am inadequate or flawed in some way; I am not enough.”
The opposite of faith is not doubt, but fear. Fear is really misplaced faith that there is something opposed to God whose influence and ability may bring us evil. Fear and faith are both fueled by the energy of thought. Rather than fight fear (since what we fight or resists, persists), we need to convert fear into faith. This is done through becoming conscious of what can be seen as “‘false beliefs’,” or those beliefs that aren’t bringing us joy and peace.
The Fear to Faith process is an inner-healing process that uses a prepared worksheet along with a guided meditation. Its purpose is to take you beyond hopes and fears in order to identify the “word of God” (or quality) on which you can build your faith. Additionally, it identifies the “error” in your belief system that will be released through additional spiritual practices.
