Father, I must return Your Love for me, for giving and receiving are the same, and You have given all Your Love to me. I must return it, for I want [Your Love] mine in full awareness, blazing in my mind and keeping it within its kindly light, inviolate, beloved, with fear behind and only peace ahead. How still the way Your loving Son is led along to You!
Brother, we find that stillness now. The way is open. Now we follow it in peace together. You have reached your hand to me, and I will never leave you. We are one, and it is but this oneness that we seek, as we accomplish these few final steps which end a journey that was not begun. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 225, W-pII.225. See also ACIM Lesson 225 Insights.)
God does not demand that we love Him. In the oneness of Love, giving and receiving are the same. To be aware of the limitless Love God gives us, we must extend Love. Otherwise we block the flow of Love and cannot experience God’s limitless Gift.
A holy relationship, in which the barriers to Love’s presence have been forgiven, opens our awareness to the experience of the natural flow of giving and receiving Love. We feel the joy of extending Love and the peace of resting in Love’s presence. We love God as we love the truth in our brothers, for they are one and the same. If we judge our brother, we judge against God. As we let Christ’s vision show us the Love that is our brother, we love God and remember Heaven.
