Fear and Faith

Faith is just getting out of fear. Faith and fear can't exist at the same time. I have faith there's a power greater than me. There's no reason to sit in fear. ~ Jhe T. James
Like toddler twins trying to be in the same place
at the same time, squirming, pushing, insisting...
Like a stone blocking the passage of fish
through the current, the fish flipping, flopping,
enlarging the passage so they can get where they want
by going close beside, not in the same place...
Like trying to stuff another set of sheets
and five large towels into a full-to-the gills linen closet...
Faith can't get where fear is. Oh, that's not true.
Faith can get where fear is...or was. Fear can't stay
faced with faith allowed. And faith comes,
ejecting fear, when we just ask, just allow,
just be willing to live free of fear.
