This is a wonderful lesson in a 2-way+ GENEROUSITY
by
#126: “All that I have give...I’ve given to myself...”
All that I have given I have given to myself.
This idea today is foreign to our present thinking.
Which is: [essentially to give only out of our excesses
Or to give from scarcity and do without...called sacrifice.]
Our thinking has been well trained
To keep us in thoughts of scarcity, (scare city)
Comparison, competition, judgments
And oh yes, the idea that it is possible to sacrifice.
Jesus says today...”All we give is given to ourSelves”.
If we knew about this concept
Complete forgiveness would be... a breeze
Certainty of goals would bring... no dilemmas
Understanding salvation would be ours with... no hesitation!
We give from our excess as in charity...
Judging “the given to” as unworthy and us as worthier.
Our forgiving goes along this same thought.
We forgive because another has slipped up
Making the mistake that we did not...
And we had to decide his errors were lower down than ours.
In this, we are not giving to ourselves.
A decision has been made that we are separate and above...
...We are not understanding, that we are all one.
All that I give is given to mySelf.
True forgiveness of ourSelves to ourSelves
For any judgment we can make
For any decision of someone’s unworthiness,
Of someone’s incompetence, or ignorance...
True forgiveness can be only of ourSelves to us,
For putting us upon those “better than” behavior pedestals
And “them” not so high.
Yes, we learned this well...because
It is the highest form of perpetuating separateness
Jesus says, “Think again with me.
And understand the Truth that
The giver and the receiver are the same.”
You will need help to make this meaningful to you...
And help is here! We have already learned that...
When we give God our faith...it is given to ourSelves.
If we can catch the tiniest glimpse
Of release that this will bring today...
This will be a day of glory for us and the world.
This is the thought that will give our prayers
The perspective that our priorities have missed.
It is the thought that will release our thinking
That keeps us from true forgiveness...
And what our true forgiveness can really mean to us.
We can spend a quiet moment opening our mind
To this correction and His love.
What we hear from Holy Spirit we will believe,
For what He gives...will truly be received by us with Love...Amen...
