How to Overcome Fears Concerning Love and Marriage

By: Jimmy Cox

If your problem has to do with love you will find much help in these several points:

1. You are not alone, not unloved. God had need of you or you would not be here. Fulfill that need and love will come and fear will go.

2. What we call evil is a wrong use of our good, God given power. God our Creator continues to create through us his offspring. We create at a low general level, every time we think. We create at a higher level when we picture what we desire. We create at the highest level when we picture with a purpose and speak the word for it. It is because we do have this power that we need have no fear of anything outside of ourselves.

The next step in overcoming fear is: set a purpose in life.

Be sure to set one that is of tremendous importance to you. Let it mean almost as much as life itself. Work under love at that purpose and no fear can touch you.

Also: remember to keep up with the world picture of love at work. World fear goes as worldwide love comes in. A recent scientific discovery sets the date of man on earth at 1,750,000 years. We can be pretty certain that fear of one human being for another is also that old. We will stop our wars, murders, hatreds and suspicions when enough people understand themselves and their neighbors and God.

Only then can they conduct their affairs of life within the golden rule so that we can have worldwide, permanent peace, plenty, happiness and freedom from fear. Thousands of efforts are being made on this front. For example:

1. The exchange student program is now so well established that it probably will continue for generations until the peoples of one country know a great deal about those of another. As walls of ignorance are broken down, fear and suspicion go and love comes in.

2. We now have 200,000,000 Christians in the world. The number is growing rapidly. This is most hopeful for a world free of fear. For "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." (II Corinthians 3:17 R.S.V.)

3. Dr. Ernest M. Ligon, Director of Character Research Projects of Union College, recently said: "If even a quarter of the money spent during the last decade on luxurious church school buildings had been invested in research, the dividends in terms of the fruits of faith, would have been a hundredfold greater. The awakening urge for research in religious education, which is being seen on every hand, must be nourished and made to grow into the force it can become."

Everywhere we look, intelligent men and women are at work to help people to understand people. For when understanding comes, fear goes. But we must always come back to ourselves and see that we overcome our own fears. Until we do the fearless world around us will not help us much.
