Fear, Devils and Dust

This insight was inspired by a verse from American singer, songwriter, and musician Bruce Springsteen…and his song –  “Devils & Dust”

We’ve got God on our side

We’re just trying to survive

What if what you do to survive

Kills the things you love

Fear’s a powerful thing

It’ll turn your heart black you can trust

It’ll take your God filled soul

Fill it with devils and dust

– Bruce Springsteen, “Devils & Dust”

These days, a sense of fear feels omnipresent. Fear for our health, fear for our economy, fear for our friends and family, and fear for the preservation of the core American value—freedom. Yet as the great Bruce Springsteen writes in his 2005 masterpiece “Devils & Dust,” fear’s a powerful thing. And if we are not vigilant, it will turn our hearts black. So don’t let your soul be filled with devils and dust. Yes, it’s ok to feel the fear, but also let yourself feel the force that always vanquishes fear—a rational love of existence.
