"My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability."

[Marsha's thoughts]
In the introduction of the Course in Miracles textbook is the following statement: “Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists.” At first glance this may seem to make no sense! But when you think of reality as being the creation of divine Love, the image and likeness of God (Love), and this being all that is real, then the unreality of anything unlike God, good, is exposed as nonexistent, unreal. This realization that all attack comes from within is an eye-opener! When we worry about lack of money, or possible illness, or what our neighbor might do, these are thoughts which seem to attack our invulnerability. Actually our invulnerability as a reflection of God cannot be attacked, but we certainly can think of ourselves as weak and victims of life's circumstances. Through a conscious choice to reject the unreality of material existence and claim our heritage as powerful spiritual beings, unafraid to stand up and declare our Oneness with God and all Its creation, we are able to transcend the fears we have thought to be inevitable. What a new world is being unveiled in this process of living Truth!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"Every law of matter or the body, supposed to govern man, is rendered null and void by the law of Life, God. Ignorant of our God-given rights, we submit to unjust decrees,
and the bias of education enforces this slavery."
