Living Now

"God has no way of operating except now, as a continuing now." This is only one of the statements Joel S. Goldsmith makes in his Living Now. Living Now is a stirring call to forsake the past and to set the reader free from the chains of faith in, and hope of, the future. "Hope, expectancy, and what the world calls faith: all these have to do with a future tense ... Now is the only time there is, and this takes away from us the false sense of faith that God will meet our rent, or any other need, on the first of the month, and helps us to realize that God does not operate in the future. It takes away the false sense of faith." This book eliminates the past and future tenses in the beingness of now. The message of the Living Now is one of vital importance to everyone who is striving to find his way out of the maze of contradictions, frustrations, and disappointments which characterizes life lived under the tensions of the stepped up tempo of modern civilization. --- from book's back cover
