Only Love Transforms
Only love has the ability to transform energies like child
abuse, corporate greed, murder, and all other so-called
evils of the world. Nothing else has any impact. Ac-
tions taken to change such situations, such as remov-
ing a child from an abusive environment, while humane
in and of themselves, do not create transformation. The
reason for this is simple: First, such action arises from
fear, not love. Second, our intervention and our judg-
ments maintain the energy pattern of abuse and lock
them up more securely.
This explains why the decision to transform something
can be made only from the World of Divine Truth. 
 
We
humans are so locked into our beliefs about pain and
suffering, fear and death, that even while we may be-
lieve that a particular child’s soul came into this world
to experience abuse and actually wants to feel abused,
we simply cannot stand by and watch this happen. While
the mission looks easy from the world of Divine Truth, it
appears quite different down here on the physical plane.
Who could possibly leave an abused child in an abu-
sive environment? We cannot help but intervene. We
are human!
And as we saw in an earlier chapter, we need to sur-
render to the idea that Spirit knows exactly what it is
doing. If it were not in the child’s highest and best in-
terest for there to be an intervention on its behalf, it
would set things up so that no one notices it. If on the
other hand, Spirit decides an intervention serves the
soul’s highest good, it will arrange for that to occur. But
this is not our decision. We, as human beings, must

always respond in the way that seems most humane,
most caring and compassionate, while at the same time
knowing that Love is contained in the situation.
