Lesson 308 – This instant is the only time there is.

Commentary (full lesson beneath commentary)

The only interval in which I can be saved from time is now. I made up the idea of time and use it to link the past and the future, thereby skipping the present. But there is my mistake: God is in the ever-present now. “Now” is where Love lives. Now is now 🙂 “This instant is the only time there is” does make a worthy mantra. “This instant is the only time there is” repeated over and over sincerely erases the past, which reveals the future as meaningless, and undoes the need for a future at all. This instant is the only time there is. Now. This instant is the only time there is. Now. This instant is the only time there is. Now!

LESSON 308

This instant is the only time there is.

I have conceived of time in such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past time to timelessness, I must change my perception of what time is for. Time’s purpose cannot be to keep the past and future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from time is now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has come to give His present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love. And love is ever-present, here and now.

Thanks for this instant, Father. It is now I am released. This instant is the time You have appointed for Your Son’s release, and for salvation of the world in him.
