Overcoming fears with love, tears with laughter, and distress with joy.


Perhaps you think that fear as well as love can be communicated; and therefore can be shared. Yet this is not so real as it may appear. Those who communicate fear are promoting attack, and attack always breaks communication, making it impossible. Egos do join together in temporary allegiance, but always for what each one can get separately. The Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He never takes anything back, because He wants you to keep it. Therefore, His teaching begins with the lesson: To have, give all to all. T-6.V.A.5:6-13

Fear ultimately creates separation and division. Love creates unification and communion. The old saying is “United we stand. Divided we fall.”


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth.


Today it is suggested that we overcome our fears with love, our tears with laughter, and our distress with joy.
