In the world of scarcity, Love has no meaning and peace is impossible. For gain and loss are both accepted, and so no one is aware that perfect Love is in him. In the holy instant you recognize the idea of Love in you, and unite this idea with the Mind that thought It, and could not relinquish It. By holding It within Itself, there is no loss. The holy instant thus becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your brothers in your mind, experiencing not loss but completion. From this it follows you can only give. And this is Love, for this alone is natural under the laws of God. In the holy instant the laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning. The laws of this world cease to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of God accepts the laws of God as what he gladly wills, it is impossible that he be bound, or limited in any way. In that instant he is as free as God would have him be. For the instant he refuses to be bound, he is not bound. (A Course in Miracles, T-15.VI.5. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
Today our practice is to remember the fact that, in Truth, we are the idea of Love in the Mind of Love. In addition, we practice remembering that everyone in this world is also the idea of Love in the one Mind of Love. We accept the fact that the idea of Love is in our mind and in everyone’s mind. As we accept this fact we naturally join with the Love in all our brothers because Love is One.
We become single-minded. This single-mindedness is experienced in the holy instant. Because inherent in Love is extending Love, we join with the extension of Love to all Love. Because there is only oneness, as we give Love we receive Love without limit. This is the law of God, the law of Love. We are no longer bound by the idea of separation and are free to be the Love we were created to be.
