When ‘Life’ Is Not About Life At All
We see life as a lottery to win, a car to acquire, a home to buy, a family to build, and a career to develop, with status to attain. But such meaning for life is never really life, because we never get there. We are never truly satisfied with what we have. There is always something over yonder. The thing attained is always nice for a little while, then there’s a quick departure into a hankering for the next thing… this is not TRUE life.
Gaining It All Having Lost ‘It All’CALAMITOUS endings can have the most salubrious of beginnings. We have to lose it all, materially, before we can truly grasp the fullness of life spiritually. Don’t worry if you haven’t lost everything yet – you probably never will. But if you do, and still many experience grave losses, there is a paradoxical hope that stands to reverse the order of things, to catapult you into great advantage for the very things suffered.
Your belief in a thought from the unreal ego wrong mind is what you are learning to forgive in A Course in Miracles (ACIM). Belief is intangible as it is nothing more than an agreement or investment of the mind in an particular idea or thought. You use choice to invest belief in the ego thoughts which harvests the power of the mind into the miscreation of this world. It is your belief in these ideas that is in need of forgiveness and what makes forgiveness appear difficult. Decision making in the mind is what you use all the time to believe or not believe any thought at any given moment. This choice ability is where you have all the power to choose between Heaven and hell.
God of Vengeance or God of MercyGranted, there are as many vengeful quotations in the bible as there are forgiving ones. Still, Jesus, not only overwhelmingly preached forgiveness; he lived it. He forgave those who pounded him and later killed him. He excoriated the rich but did not exempt them from partaking in the forgiveness of sins through death.
The King’s RansomAn excerpt from “Maybe I’ll Count the Stars; A Parable.” “Reach out, take my hand and stand again, for this day I have set my hand again, and you have received all that you forgotten when you were created; this day you have received the knowledge that you are never alone, that you exist as a miracle, and that we have always been one.” “Take my hand, walk with me and dream your dreams again, dream without fear of failure, dream knowing it is already done and that every image of failure is only an illusion. And even on the darkest night, look above you at the promise of the coming new day as the starlight dispels the darkest path. Know that I am with you even then.” “Be still, and know that I am with you always.” The master walked away from the hillside, the sun shining at his back. A hush had befallen the entire realm as the master spoke.
