"I refuse to contemplate evil as a power. I know that it will flee from me; it dissolves and disappears in the light of love. I know that hate cannot exist where love is recognized. I turn the searchlight of Truth upon every apparent evil in my experience. This light dissolves every image of evil. The manifestation of good is complete. Love makes the way clear before me. I am guided into an ever-widening experience of living. My every thought and act is an expression of the goodness which flows from Life." - Dr. Ernest Holmes
I know that most faiths have some sort of Anti-God figure.
Whether or not this is accurate, is not what today's affirmation is about.
Instead it is about SEEING what we have preciously perceived as 'evil' from a place of TRUTH.
Usually, when we see 'evil' it is something that has happened to impact us in a negative way. Whether it is an experience or something another person has done, if we step back, we can frequently see it from a completely different perspective. God and Good are ALWAYS PRESENT in every situation. When we take time to look for the God in the situation, we negate the power of the perceived 'evil'.
Our Spirits and minds are powerful things, if we believe that we are being impacted by 'evil' then that is what we will see in our lives. Likewise, if we choose to see God in every experience, then that is what we see.
In my life peace and joy come from the presence of God. Seeing movements of the Divine in every experience has allowed me to see the truly beauty and AWESOMENESS of ever moment in this life experience.
Today, I strive to see 'evil' through the eyes of God, knowing that God's presence defeats all illusion, confusion and negativity in my experience.
