Think of yourself like this: There’s a universal intelligence subsisting throughout nature inherent in any one of its manifestations. You are one of those manifestations. You are a piece of this universal intelligence – a slice of God, if you will. Be good to God, since all that God created was good…. You are God manifested, and that’s reason enough to treat yourself kindly.

Hope is what you get when you suddenly realize that a different worldview is possible, a worldview in which the rich, the powerful, and the unscrupulous do not after all have the last word. The same worldview shift that is demanded by the resurrection of Jesus is the shift that will enable us to transform the world.
