I am not asked to make a sacrifice to find the mercy and the peace of God.
The end of suffering can not be loss. ²The gift of everything can be but gain. ³You only give. ⁴You never take away. ⁵And You created me to be like You, so sacrifice becomes impossible for me as well as You. ⁶I, too, must give. ⁷And so all things are given unto me forever and forever. ⁸As I was created I remain. ⁹Your Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be complete, having the function of completing You. ¹⁰I am complete because I am Your Son. ¹¹I cannot lose, for I can only give, and everything is mine eternally.
The mercy and the peace of God are free. ²Salvation has no cost. ³It is a gift that must be freely given and received. ⁴And it is this that we would learn today. (A Course in Miracles, W-343. See also ACIM Lesson 343 Insights.)
Our Father gave us all of What He is when He created us, His Son. He kept us one with Himself in the unity of Love. We complete Him by giving as we have received. This is how we fulfill our function as Love’s extension in the eternal circle of Love.
There is no loss when we join in the eternal giving and receiving of Love. It is joyous completion that holds us safely in peace. Today we ask the Holy Spirit to help us respond with Love to every call for Love, whether it is perceived within or without. Thus we will complete our function as God’s Son.
