内心平安•第十一课 爱出者爱返

曾经以为

我能把自己不要的东西给他人，

我错了！

我若想得到平安、爱和宽恕，

必先给出同样的礼物：

宽恕和爱 不再伤害他人。

这称不上慈善。

唯有给出爱，我自己才能领受到爱。

爱出者爱返。

而今

我于一切境遇之中，

这样告诉自己：

我所有给出的 都是给我自己的。

扪心自问：

我正在给出的 确是我自己真正想要的吗？

Inner Peace • Lesson 11

All That I Give Is Given To Myself

I was mistaken in believing that I could give anyone anything other than what I want for myself. Since I want to experience peace, love and forgiveness, these are the only gifts that I would offer others. It is not charity on my part to offer forgiveness and love to others in place of attack. Rather, offering love is the only way I can accept love for myself.

In all situations and encounters today, I will say: all that I give is given to my self. Am I now giving what I want for myself?
