LESSON 204--July 23

COMMENTARY

If I bear the Name of God, then I am the Son of God. I have the heritage of
God's family--and what an inheritance that is! I am not the offspring of
random molecules of DNA. I am not the product of survival of the fittest in
a vicious battle for supremacy in life. I am not the product of my human
family, my upbringing, my education, my failures, or my culture. What I am I
have inherited from God Himself.

As the Son of God I am "not slave to time" (1:2). I am not limited to the
short span of my body's "life" on earth. I do not require long years of
development to attain my inheritance; it is mine now. Nor am I the product
of my past. I do not need to fear the future. I am free of all limitations
time might try to impose on me.

As the Son of God, I am not subject to illusory laws of any kind. Laws of
time, of space, of economics, of health and nutrition, or any laws we think
are immutable and inevitable in this world, do not rule me. I am a child of
God. I am spirit. I am free. I am "forever and forever one with Him" (1:2).
