All of the attributes of God are in you, and nothing that does not belong to him can belong to you. Lovelessness is not a part of God and, therefore, not a part of you. With this lesson, you continue to awaken to who you truly you are.

There is no cruelty in God and none in me.

No one attacks without intent to hurt. This can have no exception. When you think that you attack in self-defense, you mean that to be cruel is protection; you are safe because of cruelty. You mean that you believe to hurt another brings you freedom. And you mean that to attack is to exchange the state in which you are for something better, safer, more secure from dangerous invasion and from fear.
