Here JP11 is paraphrasing the words of The Christ, inviting each of us to rely on Him, to guide us through our trials, and tribulations.
It is often said that fear looks ahead into the unknown where we recognise darkness, and the shadow of things to come...as our truth. Our eyes can deceive us into believing what ever our fears provide for us to perceive. In other words we see, that which we expect...for our prejudices determine our responses to the stimuli that daily invite us to become the judge, and jury on those whose perceptions are different from our own.
It is desirable that we should all advance to that perfection of love in which we shall fear no longer, despite coming to terms with the reality that fear is always waiting in the shadows, ready to pounce on us when we believe that there is much to fear when others disagree with our perceptions.
Here go, I...for perfecting love, takes us our life time, then our journey ends.
1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.
end
