Move Out Of FEAR & Into LOVE

Are you stuck in fear?
By Richard D Blackstone

How to move out of fear and into love. This is the secret to a happy life. You must use the law of attraction and focus on fear. Easier said than done. Find out how to do it. There are two belief systems to live by. One is fear-based and one is love-based. The secret is to shift out of fear and move into love. Use the law of attraction to your favour by consciously being love. Most religion is fear based because it tells you that you are separate from God. Most spirituality information is love based because it tells you that you are one with God.

We can understand that even though our experience is our best source of what is true for us, we must acknowledge that our experience is influenced to a large degree by our basic belief system. To most people, their belief system is what they believe to be true for them and is not challengeable. Most people have not given much thought, if any, as to what their innermost beliefs are.

The majority of people who believe in the fear-based paradigm of separation also believe that God is a loving God and that this separation of man and God is a divinely orchestrated maneuver by God, who works in strange and mysterious ways his wonders to perform.

Would people consciously choose a fear-based belief system? I am sure that if you polled most people, they would tell you that they would not consciously choose fear to rule their lives. But, you see, they didn’t have any choice about what type of belief system to integrate into their lives. When we entered this physical universe we voluntarily agreed to forget everything we know (which is everything). From birth to age four or five, we are totally dependant on the people who raise us to show us, by example, the belief system that we will use in our lives until we can consciously recognise that we have choice in this matter. For a lot of people, at this point in their physical life evolution, that may never happen. By the time that we, as humans, become cognisant of the fact that we can make choices we are already immersed in the belief system that was put upon us by our most caring and loving support systems.

Our mothers, fathers, family and society all supported this idea that you should go through the formative years of your life, and perhaps all of your life, living within a basic belief system that says you are separate from all people and things in this life, including God. Hey, that is okay. That is what is so. But now you are waking up. Now you absolutely know that you are free to choose all things in life, even something as powerful as your overall belief system.

Now you are aware of the fact that there is another belief system in existence that you are free to choose to live by, if you so desire. What would make you desire to take on this life changing experience of living within a love-based belief system of oneness? You have been told most of your life to take the easy way, even if it turns out to be harder in the end. You know in your heart that the decision to change your belief system will require effort on your part. Is it worth it? The rewards of taking on this challenge must be worth the effort because there are no guarantees. Or are there?

This is life we are talking about here. The process of life doesn't come with guarantees when you live within the fear-based belief of separation. You can live the most virtuous life imaginable but you will still not be guaranteed a spot in heaven.

The only guarantee that fear-based thinking gives you is that you have the opportunity to gain entrance into heaven. You are not guaranteed entrance but you are guaranteed the opportunity. Pretty weak, isn’t it? The love-based paradigm of oneness holds out some very tempting rewards. First of all, you are guaranteed life everlasting. You are eternal, just like God. You are guaranteed the ability to create your life according to your intentions and desires. You are doing that right now but you may not be conscious of that fact.

You are guaranteed heaven because, whether you know it or not, you are in heaven right now. You just can't recognize it because you are unconscious of this fact, and you probably believe heaven to be in some other form than this paradise we call earth. Let's put it this way. You are in heaven if you choose that to be so. You are guaranteed abundance. You already live in abundance but you may not be aware of that fact because you have somehow defined abundance to be measured and defined by the lone criteria of this thing we call money. You are guaranteed inner peace. That reward alone should be enough to motivate people to at least seriously consider thinking about changing their core beliefs from fear to love.
