The end of all inner struggles is wholeness, unity of our conscious thoughts under the direction of Christ inside us. Christ works within us as the Unifyer, the One who "breaks down the middle wall of partition" and brings harmony to our mental "household".

When we are whole inside, wonderful things happen. Our inner agreement releases the mighty power of God into all areas of our lives. The presence of Christ in us becomes evident as never before. This is the meaning of Jesus' words in Matthew 18:20: "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, there I am in their midst".

The Gospel of Thomas includes the following saying of Jesus, which makes the statement above even more clear: "If one is whole, one will be filled with light. But if one is divided, one will be filled with darkness".

When we are whole, we partake from the Tree of Life rather than the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. In other words, we stay away from dualistic outlook, which is deadly. Not trying to judge things and experiences as good and bad, we adjust our perception to behold imprisoned splendor of God in all the creation. We look at things with the single eye. As a result, we partake blessings from all things we see or encounter. We become enriched and energized beyond all measures.

We know that there is only one Source of all things, and nothing can exist apart from this divine Source. We know that there is only one Presence and one Power active in the universe and in our life - God.

When we are whole, we are at peace with ourselves, with the world, and with God. This is true wisdom, the one that will guide us in its perfect and peaceful ways amidst every possible challenge.

No matter who you are and what are your outer circumstances, I encourage you to strive for wholeness. Let it be a starting point in every your endeavor. Wholeness is a power of growth. It brings increase to all good things in our life.

As we begin our search for wholeness, we need to realize that nothing from the outside can make us whole. Neither our spouse (no matter how good he/she can be), nor our church (no matter how positive it can be), nor our particular occupation will ever give us wholeness. God works through people - yes, but only to a certain degree. The best thing what others can do for us is to awaken us to the truth within ourselves. Let us never allow persons or institutions lead us astray by focusing our attention on outer things. .

Will God make us whole? Yes and no. It is true that God is the Source of wholeness. It is true that God's will for every person is wholeness. And yet, the world is still full of broken, divided, sick, and troubled people. Seeing their condition, we cannot put the blame on God, or supposed "original sin". Yes, it is our destiny to be whole - but the degree of our realization of wholeness depends on our definite mental actions. We are creators of our total world, which includes the world of ideas and the world of manifestations.

Let us not fool ourselves by pretending to be less than creators.

Let us transform ourselves by renewing our minds: from brokenness to wholeness, from mental conflicts to unity of consciousness, from struggles within to acceptance of our total self.

Let us accept the responsibility for our lives with joy and gladness, being confident of who we are, and who God in us is.

Let us accept wholeness, freely given to us by our Father, by deliberately cleansing ourselves from all ideas of division.
