T. 23. IV. 6 – 8. Jesus: “When the temptation to attack rises to darken your mind and make you murderous, remember that you can choose instead to see the battle from above the battleground!
Even in the forms of attack you do not yet recognize as such, the signs of attack you know. There is a stab of pain, a twinge of guilt, and above all, a loss of your peace! This you do know all too well!
When these signs tell you that you are tempted to attack, leave not your place on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of murder! And God Himself and all the lights of Heaven will gently lean to you, and hold you up. For now you have chosen to remain where He would have you be, and no illusion can attack the peace of God when His Son has chosen to be with Him.
See no one then, from within the battleground, for there you look on him from nowhere! You have no reference point from where to look, where meaning can be given what you see. For only bodies could attack and murder, and if this your purpose be, then you must be one of them!
Only a purpose unifies, and those who share a purpose have a mind as one. The body has no mind nor purpose of itself, and must remain as solitary. From any position on the battleground, the body cannot be surmounted. From above, the limits it exerts on those in battle are gone, and not perceived. Only because it has no purpose that can be shared does the body seems to stand between the Father and the Heaven He created for His Son!
Think what is given those who share their Father’s purpose, and who know that it is theirs! They want for nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they love is in awareness, and only love shines upon them forever. It is their past, their present and their future; always the same, eternally complete and wholly shared.”
