Accepting and Extending God’s Love

I am entrusted with the gifts of God. All things are given you. God’s trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He gives without exception, holding nothing back that can contribute to your happiness.

Christ’s hand has touched your shoulder, and you feel that you are not alone.

One walks with you Who gently answers all your fears with this one merciful reply, “It is not so.” He points to all the gifts you have each time the thought of poverty oppresses you, and speaks of His Companionship when you perceive yourself as lonely and afraid.

Become the living proof of what Christ’s touch can offer everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in your happiness to how transformed the mind becomes which chooses to accept His gifts, and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the giving of His gifts to all who have received them. He has shared His joy with you. And now you go to share it with the world. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 166, W-pI.166.1:1-4;9:2;11;3-4;15:2-7. See also ACIM Lesson 166 Insights.)

We are loved beyond our capacity to imagine in the dream because the dream is the denial of God’s Love. Though we have denied His Love, God has never withdrawn It. We need only accept God’s gift to feel His Love inspire us to share it with all.

Love’s Nature is to extend Itself. We know that we have God’s gift of Love by sharing It with all our brothers. Only our guilt and unforgiveness stands in the way of our experiencing the eternal receiving and giving of Love. This is why the daily, moment by moment practice of offering all our thoughts in the world to the Holy Spirit to receive His interpretation is how we recognize God’s eternal gift. It is how we remember we are not alone. It is how we remember we lack nothing. With this practice we naturally answer calls for Love, from others or ourselves, by extending Love and blessing.

Today we would practice forgiving that we may accept God’s Love.
