More on car collision

Remember my car collision story last week? Elaine Lang, from Thousand Oaks, CA, sent me an email I think you'll find revelatory. With her permission, I've posted it below.

As it turned out, on the car trip I was on, we witnessed 4 accidents, plus our own that day during a 100 mile excursion. The onslaught of accident-belief came in a highly concentrated form in a short period of time. It was highly unusual, and I have prayed for peace of mind about it ever since. Elaine's comments below help sort it all out.

Evan, I’ve been thinking about your experience with the automobile collision and thought you might appreciate another indication of the victory you have demonstrated.

Our family experienced and witnessed 5 auto accidents last month! From each we took away a huge sense of gratitude for the safety of all involved, and a clear, renewed impression of the divine order illustrated in the midst of suggestions of chaos. I won’t detail the incidents, because that’s not really the point. The victory is that in each case, all was restored with grace and complete restoration, along with examples of exceptional kindness, timeliness and quality workmanship from the various individuals involved.

In thinking through this unusual and aggressive picture in our family, reviewing the protection and healing in each case, I was struck with a remarkable thought, which I’ll share. Please accept it in the spirit of humility because I don’t think of it as any sort of revelation. Just a clear answer to my mental query.

It struck me with force that the apparently omnipresent representation (in the media, print and electronic, talk radio, etc.) of chaos and warring factions (political, cultural, economic, environmental, religious, and military) has permeated public thought with the impression that our world and universe are spirally out of control. Is it any surprise that the suggestion would manifest itself at grassroots level by an unusually high incidence of accidents?

We who practice spiritual healing and carefully consider the counterfacts of God’s flawless, consistent, orderly, systematic government are applying this great antidote even in confronting the outrageous presentation of accident in our own experience. In other words, treating this affront right in our own families is blessing and correcting and protecting our fellows in exactly the way Love intends us to at this moment in humanity’s progress, don’t you think?

Rather than dealing with anything out of control, we have proven God’s divine control right where chaos seemed to assert itself—where the rubber meets the road, literally!

I agree Elaine! We all need to be actively and vigorously countering the world belief of events spiraling out of control by demonstrating God in control. The world needs our prayers more than ever.
