GOG 2026; #105; I CRUCIFY MYSELF

We crucify ourselves with our "attack thoughts." First we have them toward ourselves, which are self-harming, then we "blame" the hurt on someone or something outside of ourselves. And if we can't find a particular "villian" to which we can blame our hurt, we blame God in the end. God is giving me this horrible situation. I must be guilty. I must be deserving of this "punishment." Guilt is an attack on ourselves, and this is the point of this lesson—it is but ourselves we crucify. We can just as easily forgive ourselves for whatever it is, and see our inherent innocence. We were mistaken, yes, but not guilty. The thread out of this labyrinth of our self-destructive tendency is forgiveness—total and unequivocal—of ourself first, and then of everyone and everything else. Forgiveness will heal us and dissolve all self-harm.
