Our God-created selves are not at all given to violence, anger, frustration, or humiliation. We are, in fact, made to love, not hate or hurt—whether others or ourselves.
As I turned wholeheartedly to God in prayer, I felt a shift from a fearful and angry focus on injustice to an earnest focus on the supreme power of God, the source of all good.
As the false sense of having a pro or con personality yields to the reality of our glorious spiritual identity, the radiancy of Christ is revealed, reflecting God’s healing power.
The algorithm of Spirit, the law of God’s allness, is supremely practical. It cuts through the variables of mortal chance, circumstances, and demands and impels harmony, health, supply, and freedom as the natural and inevitable outcomes of infinite good.
Regardless of when and how division and hatred began, the greater question is whether genuine reformation, forgiveness, love, and unity are possible in the face of these plagues.
What a difference it would make to consider the possibility that the root of every problem is a theological need and that every solution is in understanding more about God.
Even as the form of our experience changes from day to day, year to year, the substance of the actual good of our lives never changes, because it has its source in the unalterable nature of God as divine Love and Life.
