10. What Is The Last Judgment?

Lesson 314

I Seek A Future Different From The Past.

From new perception of the world, there comes a future very different from the past. The future now is recognized as but extension of the present. Past mistakes can cast no shadows on it, so that fear has lost its idols and its images,¹²⁷ and being formless, it has no effects. Death will not claim the future now, for life is now its goal, and all the needed means are happily provided. Who can grieve or suffer when the present has been freed, extending its security and peace into quiet future filled with hope?

2. Father, we were mistaken in the past, and choose to use the present to be free. Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind our past mistakes, and sure that You will keep Your present promises and guide the future in their holy light.^[1]

Footnote 127. The shadows on the future cast by our past mistakes are all the frightening events we envision in the future in which our mistakes will catch up with us. These anticipated events are fear’s “idols” and “images.”

Personal Notes:

I seek a future different from the past. I meditate on above prayer today, and in quiet I wait to hear my Father’s Voice. I pray for all my brothers and myself for continued guidance, wisdom, discernment, protection, and illumination, of The Way, The Truth, The Life, in Christ Jesus, Amen. Thank you for sharing with me. Walk in Love my friend!
