Learning to Live the Laws of Love

There are no laws but God’s. ²Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today, and hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the truth to you. ³You will be listening to One Who says there is no loss under the laws of God. ⁴Payment is neither given nor received. ⁵Exchange cannot be made; there are no substitutes; and nothing is replaced by something else. ⁶God’s laws forever give and never take.

Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the “laws” you thought upheld the world you thought you saw. ²Then listen further. ³He will tell you more. ⁴About the Love your Father has for you. ⁵About the endless joy He offers you. ⁶About His yearning for His only Son, created as His channel for creation; denied to Him by his belief in hell.

Let us today open God’s channels to Him, and let His Will extend through us to Him. ²Thus is creation endlessly increased. ³His Voice will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. (A Course in Miracles, W-76.9:1–11:3. See also ACIM Lesson 76 Insights.)

God is only Love and His laws are the laws of Love. Love is one and changeless. It creates by extending Itself eternally. God’s one Creation is His Son, the eternal extension of Himself. Under the laws of Love, Its extension must continue extending. As God’s Son, We naturally extend the Love that created us.

The wish for specialness, which is the wish to keep something for itself alone, stands as a barrier to Love’s extension. It denies Love and substitutes images of specialness, which have no life of their own. Only our belief in false images of separation stand between us and the Life we live in God. The dream of separation has its own “laws” made to maintain the illusion of separation. They need to be followed in order to continue the dream.

But we can awaken from this dream. We can learn to let go of our mistaken beliefs. God gave us His Teacher to help us learn to see past our mistaken beliefs and learn that only Love is Real. With His help, we will learn the only laws that truly determine our Reality. We will learn that we share God’s Love and His Will to extend Love without limit.
