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.
Prayer, with its direct impact on consciousness, changes it to higher, more spiritual views. And as this change occurs in thought, we can reasonably expect to see less violence and more humanity, affection, compassion, and healing appear.
