All fear springs from an aversion to being threatened or wronged on some level. And yet it is written that true love holds no record of wrong.3 Love does not take wrong into account. There is no fear in love. No polarity. This is Elyon's love, which sees no threat against itself because it is whole and cannot be disturbed or upset by any finite threat.

Be careful, Grace, Bobbie's familiar voice warned. An echo in my mind alone. And then she was there, standing across the street, hidden in shadow, invisible to others because she was there only for me. To protect me, I thought. Against things coming. My father had come and brought the boy, Eli. Protect your heart. Even from the boy? From everything. Yes, I thought, protect my heart from everything.

There's a story about a boat caught in a terrible storm. All the passengers were terrified except one, who slept in peace even as the waves pounded the boat, threatening the lives of all on board. They called that one Yeshua. The others rushed to him and begged him to save them. He stood and asked them one question. 'Why are you afraid, you of little faith?

In fact, there are many more Fury in Haven Valley than in most places. Sylous first opened your eyes to the same fear that's always existed in the whole world, then promised to hide it from you if you follow the law. He's a spirit of religion.

But all will be well, and all will be well, and every kind of thing will be well.
