seek to implement it. However you have committed yourself and
therefore you must go about the business of completing the task. Your
actions become unfriendly and you undertake this chore with a bad
heart – but you have committed yourself to this task and have to take
on the bad feeling you have and to shoulder the responsibilities that
you subjected yourself to. Incidentally this can also be the cause of
your becoming ill.

You can now see that the law does not allow you to escape the
effect of what you have caused by your apparent generosity, your
friendly offer of taking on someone else's experiences. The law
instead of being applied to them then gets applied to you. They do not
escape either as they are also subject to the law all day every day.
They, for example, run the risk of your doing the job your way, which
could be the wrong way, and because of the trouble you experience
and blame them for, they can loose your friendship. On the other hand
if you were to help them in their task by supporting them in doing the
best they can, the law will give a more positive outcome. Your friend
will feel greater self esteem, greater strength and a greater respect for
your friendship. Both of you can safely accept responsibility for the
outcome in your own right.

This is a law worth studying and understanding along with
an understanding of selfishness and responsibility. Though these
words are from God we take all responsibility for passing them on
to you and we hope you will take full responsibility for reading
them.
