The topic this Wednesday May 8, 2013 is Fear. Fear is “False Evidence Appearing Real.”
“Fears are educated into us, and can, if we wish, be educated out.” said Karl Augustus Menninger
“There are very few monsters who warrant the fear we have of them.” said Andre Gide
What are your monsters? What do you fear? Are they justified? Can they be educated out?
Louise Hay teaches, “When a problem comes up, one of the best things you can do is say these positive affirmations: ‘All is well. Everything is working out for my highest good. Out of this experience only good will come. I am safe.’”
Inspired by sermon from Rev Durrell Watkins
