Aloha,
A Course in Miracles by Dr. Helen Schucman is a beautifully written course of self-study designed to help you deepen your connection with your divinity. It has a workbook that takes a year to complete. Actually doing the exercises will really change your perspective and allow you to let go of your fear. Here are some quotes from A Course in Miracles about fear that I find most helpful. Over and over again, the course reminds us that fear is simply the lack of love.
“Only the mind can create fear.”
“Perfect love casts out fear. If fear exists, then there is not perfect love.” Perfect love refers to the unconditional love that is our true divine nature.
“Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists.”
“The search for love is but the honest searching out of everything that interferes with love.”
“The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love’s presence, which is your natural inheritance.”
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
This quote really sums it all up: “There is nothing to fear.”
With love and aloha,
Susan
Angels experience only love so they can teach us how to live with passion instead of fear.

I have come to appreciate this blog. I read it every day and sometimes more than once a day. It really brings the angels down to earth where we live.
Thank you again for this blog.

I have to say that I am with you Cybil. Further more, we should not be obsessed with angels. Good angels come to do the Will of God only, Not ours and there are bad angels that come to deceive us, and take our focus off of Jesus. Perfect love is from God only, through His Son Jesus Christ – NOT from angels. Worship Him alone, not idols!
Jesus Christ is who we should look to for Everything. Keep your eyes on Him. John 14:6 Jesus says “I am the Way the Truth and the Life …”
All praise and honor are Yours Almighty Father, now and forever!
