In seeing that we can have only the identity God made, we recognize that the resistance to spiritual growth calling itself distractedness is nothing more than an imposition on us.
Keeping calm in the midst of conflict allows us to listen for the voice of divine Truth and Love. This peaceful utterance reassures us, no matter what someone else says or does, that the essential goodness of our identity continues undisturbed and untouched.
With stillness, patience, and presence, I am not missing anything. I am meeting new insights that arrive on the wings of inspiration. I experience fresh hope, and welcome with an open heart the healing ideas that bring mental and physical transformation.
It may seem that technology, which is so often helpful in improving our lives but can also be used for criminal and hurtful purposes, far outstrips Jesus’ methods. But, in fact, the truth that Jesus preached and practiced is still fully effective in this age.
I decided that if I was going to let something determine my identity, I needed to feel completely good about it. Astrology didn’t give me that. So I knew there had to be another way.
