And true forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must heal the mind that gives, for giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not been given, but what has been given must have been received.
ACIM-W-126:7:5-6
So these lessons continue to deal with forgiveness.
Lesson 131 &132 have been discussed in previous entries.
Lesson 123 is a practice of gratitude. As we give thanks to God, we receive thanks from Him.
In Lesson 124 we are to continually remind ourselves we are One with God, feeling safe and protected in His care, peaceful in His Love.
We still ourselves quiet to receive God's word in Lesson 125.

And in Lesson 126 we are reminded that as we give, we receive, especially when it comes to forgiveness.
Love cannot judge. As it is one itself, it looks to all as one. Lesson 127 discusses the need to know what Love really is before we can advance further... speaking to the changeless, unconditional Oneness of Love. It reminds us that what we are is Love. We are asked to bless all with the Love of God and to share it with them.
We are to remind ourselves, in Lesson 128, that the world we look upon holds nothing that we want. We see it all as purposeless and meaningless and put aside our attachment to it. What is important is becoming aware of who we really are and connecting with that true Self.
This true Self is beyond the veil ego creates with fear; beyond the petty attachments of form and it is that which we seek, that which will allow us to look on the desperate world we see now and see the beauty in it. (Lesson 129)
We can only see one world. It is either ego's world or God's world ; the real world or the unreal; fear or Love
Once we recognize there is no value in the world ego runs...we will be free to discover the only world that matters. (Lesson 130)
What you see reflects your thinking. And your thinking but reflects your choice of what you want to see. ACIM-W-130:1:2-3
All is well.
