Lesson 172

God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

1. (153) In my defenselessness my safety lies.

²God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

2. (154) I am among the ministers of God.

²God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

(ACIM, W-172.1:1–2:2)

God is Love and only Love and therefore so am I. This is true even when I seem to be acting as if I am something else. I remain as God created me. As Love, there is nothing in me that feels the need to defend. If I catch myself defending anything, I know that I have been listening to the ego and I stop. I cannot be the minister of God that I want to be if I attack and any defense is an attack. The good news is that I am still as God created me even when it seems that I am making mistakes. I am Love and that is the only true thing about me.
