11-28

Open your mind and heart---your entire being---to receive my love in full measure. So many of my children limp through their lives starved for love because they haven't learned the art of receiving. This is essentially an act of faith: believing that I love you with boundless, everlasting love. The art of receiving is also a discipline: training your mind to trust me, coming close to me with confidence.

Remember that the evil one is the father of lies. Learn to recognize his deceptive intrusions into your thoughts. One of his favorite deceptions is to undermine your confidence in my unconditional love. Fight back against these lies! Do not let them go unchallenged. Resist the devil in my name, and he will slink away from you. Draw near to me, and my presence will envelop you in love.

敞开你的思想和心灵——你的全人——接受我无尽的爱。我许多的子民在他们的生活中跛行，因为他们渴望爱，却未学会接受的艺术。相信我以无边、永恒的爱来爱你，这本质上是一种信心之举。接受的艺术也是一种操练：训练你的思想来信任我，充满信心地亲近我。

记住，恶者是谎言之父。学会辨别他欺骗性的干扰进入你的思想。他最喜欢的欺骗之一是削弱你对我无条件爱的信心。与这些谎言作斗争！不要让它们不受挑战。以我的名义抵挡魔鬼，他将会从你面前溜走。亲近我，我的同在将用爱包围着你。
