Promises
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.
Self-seeking will
slip away.
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.
