Inner Guidance or fear, who will direct your life?

    We all allow fear to direct our lives.  On the surface this looks a like a reasonable way to approach life. I use fear to keep me safe.  I am afraid of getting hit by a car so I don't step off the curb and into traffic.  I choose not to touch the hot stove because I am afraid of getting burned.  Though in the end these are just common sense decisions that need not be framed around being afraid of anything. 
    Problem is when we are afraid to take a chance on a relationship or a job possibility because we are afraid it will fail.  Or the myriad other possibilities that we choose not to take advantage of because of  fear.  Most people have no idea how many of their daily decisions are directed by fear.  Many people believe that a healthy dose of fear will help to keep you safe in this world.  This concept is fine and dandy if you want to spend your life deciding who to talk to, what to do, how to do it and where to go based on fear. 
    Fear will tell you what to avoid because it is not safe.  That is the nature of fear.  It directs you with worry, anxiety, dread and insecurity because that is what it is.  Fear is designed to keep you afraid and it does this insidiously by making you believe it is keeping you safe. 
    Your Inner Guide is Unconditional Love and Peace.  Once you begin to understand  this alternative source of information, you start to question your allegiance to fear.  Your Inner Guide is unconditionally loving and peaceful and is designed to help you feel loving and peaceful. 
    Of course you always have a choice.  But, if you really understood the options could you honestly choose fear over your Inner Guide?
