Have you ever said, "I will do this when that happens?" This lesson tells us not to wait. The ego would like to have us waste time when we could be healthy, forgiving and loving. The ego would leave us in turmoil. The timelessness God offers us is the opportunity to live now. This lesson tells us to take this very instant and live in love.

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 redeemed. This instant is the time You have appointed for Your Son's release, and for salvation of the world in him.
