There Be Monsters: Turning Fear of the Unknown Into Possibility

Why do we so often fill the unknown with the worst thing we can imagine?
Centuries ago, mapmakers populated unexplored spaces with sea monsters, dragons, and other dangers. Rev. Cindy Shellum explores how we do the same thing with the unmapped territory of our own lives.
A career change, health diagnosis, relationship transition, or uncertain future can become a blank space where fear quickly writes, “Here there be monsters.” But an imagined outcome is not yet our reality.
This message invites us to remember the unknowns we have already survived, take the next available step, seek guidance when we need it, and recognize that a larger comfort zone makes more of life available to us.
The blank spaces are not necessarily threatening. They may be inviting us to create, explore, and discover what comes next.
Where your old map once said, “Here there be monsters,” you can write: Here is God. Here is possibility. Here is infinite potential.
