The Promises
If we are painstaking about this phase of our development, we will be amazed
before we are half way through. We are going to know a new freedom and a new
happiness. We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it. We will
comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace. No matter how far down the
scale we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others. That
feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear. We will lose interest in
selfish things and gain interest in our fellows. Self seeking will slip away.
Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change. Fear of people and of
economic insecurity will leave us. We will intuitively know how to handle
situations which used to baffle us. We will suddenly realize that God is doing
for us what we could not do for ourselves.
Are these extravagant promises? We think not.
They are being fulfilled among us - sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. They
will always materialize if we work for them.
