The Promises
If we are painstaking about this phase of our development,
we will be amazed before we are halfway through.
1. We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness.
2. We WILL not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it.
3. We WILL comprehend the word serenity and we WILL know
peace.
4. No matter how far down the scale we have gone, we WILL see how
our experience can benefit others.
5. That feeling of uselessness and self-pity WILL disappear.
6. We WILL lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in
our fellows.
7. Self-seeking WILL slip away.
8. Our whole attitude and outlook upon life WILL change.
9. Fear of people and of economic insecurity WILL leave us.
10. We WILL intuitively know how to handle situations which used
to baffle us.
11. 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.
12. They WILL always materialize if we work for them.
