“Today we would remove all meaningless and self-made gifts which we have placed upon the holy altar where God’s gifts belong. 2 His are the gifts that are our own in truth. 3 His are the gifts that we inherited before time was, and that will still be ours when time has passed into eternity. 4 His are the gifts that are within us now, for they are timeless. 5 And we need not wait to have them. 6 They belong to us today.”
I don’t have to earn God’s love. I simply need to accept that it is of him and in me. Not only that, but I need not earn the love of my brothers and sisters, for, like me, they are all part of God’s One Creation. I may not always recognize either the gifts or the love, but they’re there when I take the time to go within to find them. All of us, with these gifts of love, joy, and peace, are wealthy indeed, and that wealth never diminishes, but only grows as we give it away. I am grateful.
Blessings,
Mari

Since you’re here… …we have a small favor to ask. More people are reading our posts, listening to our audios and watching our videos than ever before but far fewer are donating for it. As an all-volunteer ministry, you can see why we need to ask for your help. MiraclesOne provides ACIM resources freely however it takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe in encouraging others to practically apply the Course principles in their lives – because it might just make the one difference in your life. If everyone who reads, listens or watches and likes what we offer helps to pay for it we can continue to afford our expenses and keep our resources FREE to all ACIM Students. Monthly Donors receive free gifts in appreciation for their support.
