What Is Not From Love

These thoughts were given to me recently.
You mistook a mad idea as being real, as if it had really occurred.
God knows not of your tiny mad idea, He sees only that His Son sleeps. You, who sleep, cannot be aware of the truth which surrounds and in dwells you is reality. You have mistaken that the dream is reality.

“Loss is not loss when properly perceived.”  When you choose to give up the illusions of the dream, then you will perceive truly. How can loss of illusion
be regarded as anything other than freedom? When you understand that you cannot lose anything that is part of Love, you will no longer fear loss.
Anything that is not part of Love has no meaning, no value.
It is always a mistaken thought or idea, and one the Holy Spirit will correct for you, freeing you from continuing “mistakes.”

I also found this helpful, from
David Hoffmeister.
  “It is important to
  remember that the
  giving up of illusion
  has no cost or sacrifice.”
