Fear or Love - What Will You Choose?

As I look at the big picture to find meaning in this Covid-19 challenge, I sense the world is being called to move from fear to love. The virus isn’t an enemy, fear is. While fear can be a great motivator, it can also be paralyzing. Fear creates darkness and the illusion of separation. It can control you by making you more easily manipulated into making poor decisions from those taking advantage of your fear. When you are in fear you make choices from cloudy thinking. You become reactive instead of responsive, willing to go along with half-baked ideas, usually perpetuating more fear. However, when you can slow down, even for a few minutes, take some deep breaths, and focus on your heart center, you can make clearer choices from a connection with your heart as well as from your head. You are able to get in touch with your inner knowing instead of looking for answers outside of you. You’ll find you’re able to more clearly see your choices allowing for healthy discernment. As you do, you’ll see more interconnections allowing for more light into your life as you experience the synergy of working together for the common good, and thus your own wellbeing.  You can choose - will you choose to panic and swirl in chaotic thinking, fighting with fear? Or will you choose to connect with your heart center, get in touch with your inner knowing and recognize you are free?
