How
Is Peace Possible in This World?
Peace is
impossible to those who look on war.
Peace is
inevitable to those who offer peace.
How easily,
then, is your judgment of the world escaped!
It is not
the world that makes peace seem impossible. It is the world
you see that is impossible.
Yet has God's
Judgment on this distorted world redeemed it and made it fit
to welcome peace, and peace descends on it in joyous answer.
Peace now
belongs here because a Thought of God has entered.
What else but
a Thought of God turns hell to Heaven merely by being what It is?
The earth
bows down before Its gracious Presence, and It leans down in
answer to raise it up again.
Now is the
question different. It is no longer,
"Can
peace be possible in this world?"
But instead,
"Is
it not impossible that peace be absent here?"

If
you choose to see the body, you behold a world of separation and
happenings that make no sense at all. Salvation is undoing of all
this. Chap 31 Recognizing
Spirit
It
is impossible the Son of God be merely driven by events outside
of him. It is impossible that happenings that come to him were not
his choice. Chap 21 Res
for Sight
