I. Perfection

A message from Jesus, identifying himself as "the living Christ who lives in you."

 
BkII:17.I.2 It seems difficult to love the world, but it is not. Or rather, it is as difficult as you want it to be. We have come today to draw back the veil between the wisdom of God and your understanding of love. The difficulty you have in consciously extending love to the world lies in your way of thinking, not only in relation to what you think love is, but in your mind itself, in your mental process. That mode of functioning still remains in the inertia of the egoic mode of thinking, and is an obstacle. You know it. You cannot love with the mind, just as you cannot forgive with the mind. Love is not a matter of thought. To love is to be. Or put another way, love is what you are. It has nothing to do with something you do, think, or feel.
