ACIM Workbook Lesson #298
“I love You, Father, and I love Your Son.”
I grew up in a small town and have lived all my life in close proximity to it, and so there are many people I’ve known for decades. Looking back at my dearest friends through the years, most of us have grown apart, finding that we no longer share the same viewpoints or interests. This outgrowing has seemed to be a natural progression in life, and treasured relationships which have endured are deep and sweet. Someone I’ve known for years and liked very much, although we were never close, killed herself recently. It’s a natural response to wonder if we could have made a difference, and I remind myself that I am doing just that with every loving thought and every extension of appreciation and gratitude. I am grateful for this burgeoning understanding which allows me to love without fear, to extend a hand when needed, and never fear the consequences. Namaste!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“Love never loses sight of loveliness. Its halo rests upon its object. One marvels that a friend can ever seem less than beautiful. Men and women of riper years and larger lessons ought to ripen into health and immortality, instead of lapsing into darkness or gloom.”
