November 6, 2012 - I Spend This Day in Love


"Aaron and Friends World Cup 2010"
ACIM Workbook Lesson #310
“In fearlessness and love I spend today.”

The love we feel for friends and family is a foretaste of the possibilities of all-encompassing Love. This omniscient Love is what we are left with when all material belief and opinion is gone from thought. Recently, two of my son’s friends from forever came by to visit. It was as though they’d been with us every day. The time spent in our home was a sweet reminder of days gone by. At the time my children were growing up, I spent much more time every day in prayerful study and contemplation than I do now. Or so it seemed! But when I stop to think about it, every interaction is expressing this Love with a fearlessness that grows more complete every day. These seeds were planted and are still being nurtured by moment-to-moment expressions of Love. No matter what we do on a daily basis, this Love can be expressed in many ways – actually, in every way! And by loving yourself, you’re loving everyone. By living fearlessly, you’re spreading this confidence to all. I will go forth with loving gratitude today and expect only Good.

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“If we look to the body for pleasure, we find pain; for Life, we find death; for Truth, we find error; for Spirit, we find its opposite, matter. Now reverse this action. Look away from the body into Truth and Love, the Principle of all happiness, harmony, and immortality. Hold thought steadfastly to the enduring, the good, and the true, and you will bring these into your experience proportionably to their occupancy of your thoughts”
