a) “Teacher of God do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember what each decision you make must mean in terms of cost. ²Decide for God, and everything is given you at no cost at all. ³Decide against Him, and you choose nothing, at the expense of the awareness of everything. ⁴What would you teach? ⁵Remember only what you would learn. ⁶For, it is here that your concern should be. ⁷Atonement (Oneness) is for you. ⁸Your learning claims it and your learning gives it. ⁹The world contains it not. ¹⁰But, learn this Course and it is yours.” (ACIM, M-13.8:1-10)
Keep in mind that every distracting thought, word, and deed; every choice for littleness that is encouraged by the ego is a sacrifice from Oneness and connection with our Creator.
