Navigating Collective Fear During Trying Times

Normally, I don’t watch the news. I know that some would say this is being oblivious to what is going on in the world, but I don’t feel that way. If I need to know something, I will be shown. A friend will mention it, I will come across it online or I will be told. I find most of the news is fear, in the form of social media and other outlets where a lot of energy gathers, most of it negative, to overwhelm people. This week, I have followed along with the hurricane updates, waiting nervously to find out what the next news report would say. On Tuesday, the energy weighed heavily on me. All day, I found myself stuck to my phone, checking and re-checking the latest updates. People’s lives are in danger. That is hard to swallow. It is hard to live my normal life while people are facing their last hours on this Earth. I know, from many sessions with my own teacher, that dwelling on the what ifs doesn’t help, and yet, I was caught in that trap. As I lay in bed Tuesday night, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Finally falling into a restless slumber, I felt the presence of Jesus above me as I lay in my bed, my Bible under my pillow. For anyone who has had a personal encounter with Him, you will know His presence when you experience it. He showed me the hurricane. He showed me the weather pattern, the state of Florida, and all of the people who were in the path. He spoke directly to me then: “Sharon, I AM in this”. In that instant, I knew what He meant. I knew that He still has power over the water, the wind, the fire, and the Earth. HE is all powerful; not the fear, not the weather patterns, not the news reports, and indeed not the negative force that is working to destroy geographic locations and put people in danger.

 I think that in times like what we are facing right now as a collective, this is a message that many need to remember. We don’t have to subscribe to living in fear. We are called to rise above the 3-D energies that are ever-present. We know, both from the Bible and our own individual experiences with the divine, that there is much more than what we see on a physical level. If you have ever felt peace in a moment of prayer or meditation, know that this is your connection to the divine. Know that this is your higher self, your etheric body, that untouched part of you that has gone through much in this lifetime and before, and ALWAYS has come out of it unscathed. We ALL have a higher self. Every one of us. Our soul never lives in fear. It is our human self, that part that sees only the 3 D, that gets caught in this collective energy of fear. And fear feeds the negative energy. The negative energies LIVE off fear, and they grow when each of us chooses to believe the illusion of fear instead of the truth of God and His power. I challenge you today: whatever it is that you are fearing, Give it to GOD. Surrender your mind to the divine. Let him replace the fear with His peace. Physically draw the bright light of God down into your human body. Allow it to shine on the fear that hides in the shadows of your mind. In doing so, you are helping to dispel this collective fear-mongering. The illusion will lift if we all choose to say no to the fear. We don’t have to live our lives this way. I am sending all of you so much love and healing, especially to those facing natural disasters on the other side of the country right now. --S
