Life: A Required Course [MP3]

While as individuals we have no power to change our life scripts, we have all power to change how we look at them: from feeling unfairly treated with grievances justified, to looking through the Holy Spirit's vision and perceiving shared instead of separate interests. Thus, our special function of forgiveness changes our minds, not the situations and relationships in our lives. Since we choose the script, it is required that we learn from it. The only issue, then, is from which teacher do we choose to learn: the ego, which will keep us asleep in hell through guilt and attack; or Jesus, whose love will gently undo the ego's blocks and awaken us to the Heaven we never left.
