Donna Ashworth writes words of comfort and hope.
Today I share with you a writing from her.
“I think there are many of us who don’t know what to think, right now…
There is so much wrong and so little to be done.
And what we are witnessing is beyond the pale, and so we wait, mute, hoping that some sense will be made, that some miracle will occur.
I think there are many of us who don’t know what to say, right now.
And so we are silent instead.
And we silently pray.
Pray for answers, for peace, for a miracle.
Pray for a superman to sweep in and save the innocent, right the wrongs, clean the chaos and put the buildings back together so everyone can go home again.
I think there are many of us, so many of us, who don’t know what to do,
right now...
And so we go about our lives, seemingly normal.
But inside we are praying.
Inside we are hoping.
Inside we are desperate to find a way to help.
Desperate for safety for all.
Desperate for safety for all.”
Donna Ashworth
“Illusion meets illusion; truth, itself. The meeting of illusions leads to war. Peace, looking on itself, extends itself. War is the condition in which fear is born, and grows and seeks to dominate. Peace is the state where love abides, and seeks to share itself. Conflict and peace are opposites. Where one abides the other cannot be; where either goes the other disappears. So is the memory of God obscured in minds that have become illusions’ battleground. Yet far beyond this senseless war it shines, ready to be remembered when you side with peace.”
A Course in Miracles T-23.I.12:1-9
“‘Now,’ cried the apostle, ‘is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation,’ — meaning, not that now men must prepare for a future-world salvation, or safety, but that now is the time in which to experience that salvation in spirit and in life. Now is the time for so-called material pains and material pleasures to pass away, for both are unreal, because impossible in Science. To break this earthly spell, mortals must get the true idea and divine Principle of all that really exists and governs the universe harmoniously. This thought is apprehended slowly, and the interval before its attainment is attended with doubts and defeats as well as triumphs.”
Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 39:18-30
