MAY 18
MY MIND IS RECEPTIVE TO NEW IDEAS AND MY THOUGHT IS CENTERED ON NEW BEGINNINGS
For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
Isaiah 65:17
Nothing is ever twice alike. It is said that the physical body is never more than a year old, that we discard many bodies through life. Everything is continuously being re-created and it literally is true that the Divine Creative Spirit is forever making a new heaven and a new earth. We must permit It to make a new one for us.
There is no judgment, no condemnation, no fear and no doubt in my mind. I condemn no one and no thing, not even myself. Forgetting that which is past and having no fear of the future, I live today as though the new heaven and the new earth were already an accomplished fact in my experience. I live in harmony with people and with all the situations that surround me. I see and feel the presence of good running through everything. I have complete faith that this Divine Presence will reveal Itself to me in every thought, in every word, and in every act.
There is nothing in my past experience and nothing in my thought about the future that can in any way deny me the pleasure and the privilege of living today as though everything were complete and perfect. “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth.” My whole confidence and expectancy is of much and more, of good and of better. The future is bright with hope and fulfillment. The present is perfect, and there is no past.
