"Fear: An unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat." (quoting google definition)

Okay so, many of us are Christian including myself. Those who are believe in a greater good, in a higher power. I mean, of course, God is everything. That's simple to understand, right?
Upon reflecting a well known quote that states, "You can't trust no one, the devil was once an angel" I have come to a deeper understanding of what that really meant and have concluded my very own opinion that is for everyone to read, and not follow. With that being said everyone is entitled to their own opinions, it's America.
So, let's break this down... If God is the creator of all things, whether the components of life are based on good or bad I have acknowledged that he has created all evil as well. My interpretation is pretty straight forward, given the fact that the devil was, indeed an angel before God made him evil. Because I mean, there IS no good without a bad. We all know this, basics of life. That's just a thought... so I'll ask you this, when you think about fear what does it really mean to you? Hasn't it crossed your mind that fear may only be an idea implanted in our brains from the moment we are born, until we die along with everything else we know as "evil"? Have you ever thought about the devil being an illusion, and that his works are controlled through the only source of power we know, GOD? All to enforce the idea of fear- because again, there is no good if there is no bad- therefore they are kin to one another.
When something really bad happens in your life and the first thing you do is turn to God for help, he had already known your problems before you were about to fall in that hole. God knows it all, that's something we also know. When you push forward and continue with your life, then see everything getting better- isn't God doing that too?
The last thing I want to do is try and convince you that my opinion is right- because it's not, no one really knows how things were done to begin with because the 21st century, nor the 20th, nor the 19th, (I can keep going forever) were not alive back when Adam and Eve existed.
So why not go skydiving? Why not jump off a mountain and end up in the ocean? Why not touch that animal at the zoo that you're scared of so much. What's stopping you? Worst case scenerio you will cry out of fear. But here's when the power of the mind comes along. Every single thing you put in your mind will manifest- once you say you are scared, it's when your body will begin to tremble. However if you say you are calm and not about to blow up the way you wish you could in the middle of an argument, your body becomes calm and steady. You feed it, it follows. Fear may only be an idea that serves as a threat, and a challenge continuously thrown at you from God throughout your lifespan to see how strong of an individual you are. IF you noticed, bold, courageous and bold individuals are the ones that are the happiest and obtain much more opportunities than those who aren't; in fact they are usually the ones that aren't afraid of basically anything. This is also a fact in which we all know. So be active, try something new and face your fears. Because all that God wants to see is you proving to him that you CAN do and overcome anything, and he will reward you by blessing you and granting your wishes. Maybe this is the secret to life put into simple terms. Or maybe not, but this is my interpretation of fear...
What's yours?
