Thank you for your beautiful honesty! I am the mother of a trans woman and the words hit my heart. All of what you said is so true and such a great reminder!
This essay has been put together with such care and honesty. Thank you. I really found it helpful and encouraging too. I appreciate all the effort put into it. 🙏🏼
I think what you've hit upon is my greatest challenge (and also biggest comfort) with A Course in Miracles. I (like almost everybody else) tend to look out upon an unfeeling and dangerous world. What I attempt to do is reconcile what I'm assured is my innocent brother, with what I see reported everywhere, all the time. And how God could "allow" unthinkable things to happen.
In my ACIM reading today, however, I received the answer yet again. In "The Peace of Heaven," I'm told that it is my perception that is off. I do not have enemies, and I am no one's enemy. "God would not have his Son embattled." The war is over, Jesus tells us here. I don't have to fix anything. I just need to accept this statement, regardless of my flawed perception: "Nothing destructive ever was or will be. The war, the guilt, the past are gone as one into the unreality from which they came."
Last quote: "The Holy Spirit will undo for you everything you have learned that teaches that what is not true must be reconciled with truth. This is the reconciliation the ego would substitute for your reconciliation to sanity and to peace."
