When an angel message contradicts our opinions or sense of self-justification, the angel may feel like an opponent, not an ally. In every case, however, the angel is actually our best friend.
Christ eliminates our false sense of ourselves by revealing what’s true and already here—our genuine selfhood. We often experience that revelation as a feeling of newness or renewal.
This is the heart of Christmas, the offering Jesus so freely gave—the spiritual understanding and demonstration of God’s great gift, ever-present eternal Life.
Unity for our world isn’t just a goal to strive for; it truly is the present, spiritual reality. We are unified already as children of one Father-Mother.
To the degree that we bring our consciousness into conformity with the Mind that Christ Jesus claimed as his own, we repudiate mortal thoughts and beliefs and their outward effects, and thereby experience harmonious and healthful being.
In learning God’s statutes, we find how liberating Love’s law is, upholding our joy, health, happiness, and purpose and outlawing whatever would hide these blessings.
