Seeing Beyond Personal Suffering in our World

  • Summary

  • Description

    Elizabeth and Kate discuss the meaning they each find in a passage in A Parenthesis in Eternity by Joel S. Goldsmith. Goldsmith says that if we live in the invisible source, we draw only good from life. But how can we reconcile that with the pain and evil we see in the world? Elizabeth and Kate talk about how to have real faith despite our ubiquitous perceptions of suffering and how human consciousness fails where the spiritual connection creates a different world. We can practice experiencing good no matter what: by making a conscious choice to focus on the good; by watching our reactions in the moment that personalize our pain; by laughing; and by noticing that those who have survived the greatest suffering are often the most grateful.
