V. The Holy Instant and Special Relationships, P 11
11 Think you that you can judge the Self of God? God has created It beyond judgment, out of His need to extend His Love. With love in you, you have no need except to extend it. In the holy instant there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one. For the holy instant reaches to eternity, and to the Mind of God. And it is only there love has meaning, and only there can it be understood.

I am the Self of God. I had never thought of it in that way. He created me beyond judgment and since I am the same consciousness as are my brothers and sisters, they are the Self of God as well, and as well beyond judgment. As I accept that this is true and judgment falls away, as surely it must if I am always looking at the Self of God, only love will be left and the extension of love will be my only need. As God needed to extend Himself, so do I need to extend the love that I am.
Do I think I need my child to call me? Do I think I need my friend to answer my text? Do I think I need respect, admiration or anything else from my brothers and sisters? Of course, I do not. If I think I need these things I must be confused. I have only one need and that is to extend my self as love. How peaceful is my mind when there is no conflict.
The holy instant in which I extend only love reaches into eternity and to the Mind of God. I feel the truth of this as I write it. I cannot access a memory of this, and yet, I know it is there because I feel it. When I have decided to release all that is not love, then I will be in that holy instant and I will finally understand love.
