There is only one basic love, which is love for the Truth itself.

A pair of boys, living near each other in the country side, were good friends. They had great fun in their companionship, roaming the woods and fields. As they grew older, they visited the big city, where they first heard of human brotherhood and of charitable attitudes. Wherever they went, they heard sermons and read books on the subject of being good to others.

Because it sounded reasonable, they tried to practice what they heard preached. But, strangely, the more they made an effort to like each other, the more strained their relationship became. And for the first time, they quarreled.

Sensing that something was wrong, they forgot the sermons and together went back to the countryside. Once more they enjoyed the adventure of the woods and fields.

There is only one basic love, which is love for the Truth itself. When the Truth is our foundation, its expressions will be authentic and tender, including love for spouse and children and friend. True love comes as we drop words and live from essence. VH

"The great Truth that Jesus teaches is that you do not have to die to be immortal. You are immortal right now. Immortality has nothing to do with time. It is beyond time." Eric Butterworth

Salvation and forgiveness are the same. They both imply that something has gone wrong; something to be saved from, forgiven for; something amiss that needs corrective change; something apart or different from the Will of God. Truth and illusions both are equal now, for both have happened. The impossible becomes the thing you need forgiveness for, salvation from. Salvation now becomes the borderland between the truth and the illusion. It reflects the truth because it is the means by which you can escape illusions. The Holy Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of God and in your own. It is apart from time in that its Source is timeless. Yet it operates in time, because of your belief that time is real. He know one thing must still be true; God is still Love, and this is not His Will. Salvation is my only function here. God still is Love, and this is not His Will. Try to perceive the strength in what you say, for these are words in which your freedom lies. Your Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive yourself the thought He wanted this for you. Then let the Thought with which He has replaced all your mistakes enter the darkened places of your mind that thought the thoughts that never were His Will. Let His light seek out and lighten up all darkened spots, and shine through them to join them to the rest. It is God's Will your mind be one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one Son. It is God's Will that His one Son is you. Forgive all thoughts which would oppose the truth of your completion, unity and peace. Your only function tells you are one. Lesson for April 9th, 2013
