Nothing real can be increased except by sharing T-4.VII.5:2.
Giving, as seen by A Course in Miracles, is a means to keep something; and is seen by the world, as a way that something is lost.
God's laws are always fair and perfectly consistent. By giving you receive. But to receive is to accept, not to get. It is impossible not to have, but it is possible not to know you have. The recognition of having is the willingness for giving, and only by this willingness can you recognize what you have. T-9.II.11,3-7.
LESSON 108: To give and to receive are one in truth ...Here are both giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one Thought whose truth does not depend on which is seen as first, nor which appears to be in second place. Here it is understood that both occur together, that the Thought remain complete. W.108.4:1,2.
To learn that giving and receiving are the same has special usefulness, because it can be tried so easily and seen as true. W-108,6.1.
To spirit getting is meaningless and giving is all. Having everything, spirit holds everything by giving it, and thus creates as the Father created. T-5.1.1:7,9.
