Divine life-process temporality is that of a subject posited ahead of itself
Evidence
In the Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion, Hegel speaks of ‘the divine being in the stages of its life (its Lebensverlauf, or life-process)’. It is not uncommon for commentators to translate Lebensverlauf as curriculum vitae. The temporality introduced in this curriculum vitae is none other than the temporality posited by the subject as ahead of itself (vor-stellt). — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 865
