The truth about us is known in moments too fleeting to grasp, and yet too real to forget.
When you look upon your brother with compassion for deeds too horrid to ‘forgive’, you have felt the light of Who you are and remembered It clearly.
When you have seen the murderer, and his eyes begged of you to give him light, and you responded with light, you have seen Who you are.
When you have looked upon the terror that is running rampant in the world, and realized that it is the effect, and not the cause of fear, you have seen Who you are a part of!
When you have heard of the ‘innocent’ tortured, and felt not sadness, but remembered Jesus words….“Forgive them Father, they know not what they do’, you have believed in a life eternal, and realized the Truth about your own Identity.
When you have laughed at your own seeming sins in joy at the folly of them, and seen the same innocence in every brother you meet, you are free indeed!
And life becomes a treasure of immeasurable love and forgiveness for all.
This alone is salvation. This alone is Who you Are.
Remember?
