Ted Dekker

I let go of my own fear of not having it all figured out; my fear of not having all the right doctrines and beliefs; my fear of not being accepted unless I measured up to the demands of a holy God. I let go of all of that and fell into the arms of trust and love. It felt like falling into a great unseen mystery, but I was actually falling into the light and out of a darkness that had been deepened by my own attempts to make my own light through reason and striving. As the light filled my awareness, I began to awaken.
