Nothing Unreal exists

Nothing unreal exists: 

the beginning gives it all away, right from the start of A Course in Miracles we're told that nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists, and in this theses two lines we find the peace of God. Already we're set up for debate, just glancing around shows us exactly what exists, and the realness of our thoughts and body speak of their reality. Yet all of these can be threatened in someway, so ultimately, they're untrue. 

and, indeed, therein lies the peace of God. 

it's here where we make a helpful distinction - only what God has made is real, and it's eternal, having the lasting value of God's love. It can never be threatened. Of course this doesn't mean that we don't care for our material possession, or not taking joy in our bodies. But all of these are threatened by time itself, having a shelf life of a certain number of years.They are unreal in this sense, and so to believe that they will bring us any lasting peace will always, eventually, lead us to suffering.

that which is real, God, is beyond suffering.

only love is real.

and therein lies our peace.
