Chapter 4—Giving up the misery of fear and regret

“I have found that fear for the future, a preoccupation with it in thought, is not only unproductive, but is actually counterproductive. Wisdom and practicality in our affairs is to be commended, but that wisdom is more true and clear and honest when we start from a basis of calm expectancy rather than fear. Fearful thinking does not have clarity or reasonableness. And mostly, it does not make room for miracles. God is All, He is the Father and Mother of the universe, He is almighty, and He is Love. There is ALWAYS a merciful and just solution. Fear can’t see it, hear it, or know it. Salvation is as big as God and as likely as sunrise. Be ready for it. Make the present about calm excitement, a joyful anticipation, a sense of being ready for a surprise. Every day, to God, is Christmas! It is an occasion for divine Love to celebrate the fact that we are BORN unto Him, that we are His children. Every day is an occasion for the Great Father-Mother to BE a great Father-Mother. A thought based in fear or regret, misses the miracle of now and the promise of joy.”
