No Fear
“There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love’s complete perfection].”
I have begun to experientially know the truth of love's affect on fear. It displaces it- the experience of being loved is so full that there is just no room for anything else. By definition loves hopes in all things and trusts, leaving no room for anxiety. Survival is no longer the goal, but life without boundaries and love without limits is.
