Thank you over and over! Baby Daddy pictured is very cute shot..
Best, Rhondda H.
The Bible suggests “how can you love God whom you have not seen if you don’t love your neighbor who you have seen?”
So for me “loving God” can begin with loving all the evidence of God’s goodness seen in loving/caring friends, the beauty of nature, the smile of a child, our many daily provisions including spiritview and all of God’s channels of goodness..
GOOD Morning Spirit View Family!
I’ve worked for Mr. Worry and his company for a long time. Now first thing in the day comes this blessing.
Have signed on to go to work for Mr. Freedom. Using the tools provided in the Bible, Science and Health and the inspired words found on Spirit View.
The paydays are plentiful. They include freedom from that old nasty boss uncertainty. And his faithful favorite associates, fear, anxiety, depression,
My new boss Mr. Freedom gives me plenty of paid time off. Insisting on taking on all the uncertainty of each and every day so I can be happy and well.
He provides light in all dark places, so I will not stumble. Food is free in his great cafeteria.
Transportation to and from work is not necessary. For He is always with me.
Thank you for yet another great tool for my mental toolbox.
This is a fun expansion of the great concept Evan has presented, David! Thank you
Love to all
This is brilliant David! Thanks to Evan for the inspiration today.
I’m sure God has a sense of humour too!. After all it’s a part of happiness bestowed on his children.
Have a blessed day all❣️
Amen!
Thank you David Brandon for your comment! I love working for Mr. Freedom too, the benefits are amazing! Health, peace of mind, Love!
Thank you so much Evan for your blogs!
Thank you Evan and also to David. I love your idea of Mr Freedom
Evan, thanks for this great, fresh inspiration. Good comments!
Thanks Evan and thank you David.
Thank you Evan and thank you David. How clever and how true, I’m trying to move away from those co-workers that are of no help, thanks for the nudge.
Great stuff! Thanks Evan and David for his excellent follow on.
If worry is working for mortal mind — I resign. I too accept the offer of employment from The Freedom Company, with God as the CEO, thank you David for that fun idea.
I’ve heard it said that, “Worry is being ungrateful to God in advance.” That really puts it into perspective for me. Maybe being grateful to God for all the present good, and by extension the humble trust and expectancy of future good, is an antidote for worry.
I often pray on my way to work, asking God to help me serve my employer well as a way of serving Him (my true employer), who placed me there to be blessed and be a blessing. No worry in that outlook! So much love to Evan and all in Spiritview community.
Thank you so much Evan for the inspiration! David, what an excellent way to continue this whole idea! Thank you to all the Spiritview community.

Great article – thanks Angie:)
My aunt, perceiving that I was worrying about someone, said, “Worry isn’t love.” I pondered that and realised she was right. If I’m worrying, I’m not trusting God’s loving care for us all, which means I’m not loving either God or His idea, man.
Thanks always, Evan, for these stirring blogs to start each day, and all contributors for your great additions to the theme.
Thank you for sharing that thought, Joy. So true!
One who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever. – Ghandi
Worry Does Not Empty Tomorrow Of Its Troubles, It Empties Today Of Its Strength.
Wow! Great thoughts. Thank you, Pam.
So appreciate the photo which joyously Reflects Evan’s wonderful message. Also many thanks to Angie for the link to the journal article.
I just have to say it, too. I QUIT working for Mr. Worry. I am now happily employed by Mr. Freedom and I love getting up every morning and going to work !!!!
I love you all and I am grateful for starting my morning with a smile on my face.
Didn’t Albert Einstein say “Worry is Atheism?”
Also, are you aware that Einstein visited the Boston Christian Science Reading Room a number of times? He once said to someone, (referring to CS) “You people really have something here.” (Smart man!)
;<))
God is Love!!! MBE gave us the antipode for worry& I’m most grateful .
Thank you, EVAN, and fellow followers. “Pray without ceasing.” Blessings for all mankind.
I just finished imbibing the 9-21-20 Sentinel article “Who do you work for?” Terrific! Goes well with your message today. Thank you!
No worries with God as our only employer and Jesus’ example of ideal employee!
Thanks for reminding us about the ‘Who do you work for?’ article:

Mr. Worry and his right-hand man “What If” are finally being manacled and exposed as frauds! Off to jail!!. Mr. Freedom has sent his security guard “Truth” to the workplace to establish an atmosphere of Trust. Let’s all have a blessed day working for Mr. Freedom!
Thank you! Very timely as I spent most of yesterday worrying about a horse not eating! And then
she ate last evening.
Yeah! 🙂
Thanks to all for such inspiring comments! I too, am feeling convicted to quit my unpaid labor for Mr. Worry and return working in my real employment with The CEO of Freedom.
I heard about Einstein and his comments but I thought he also attended church on occasion. And one time he remarked to an usher: “You know… I don’t think any of you have any idea what you have here!”. I am not certain this is valid, but it was told to me decades ago by someone that knew him.
I searched for Einstein and Christian Science and found the following the MBE library posted about Einstein.

Thanks for the information, Brian. We want to be truthful in our stories.
Does not diminish in any way our own joy in Christian Science.
Brian, is there some way of enlarging the print? It’s very tiny on my screen. I’d really like to read it.
Thanks!
Hi Lori…Most browsers have a “zoom” feature that will enable you to increase the size of the text. Try clicking on the different buttons/icons at the top of your browser and if that results in a menu of choices being displayed, look for a Zoom option or something similar. Sometimes that option has a magnifying glass icon next to it. Other than that, there is nothing I can do on my side to make the text larger unfortunately or I would happily do it.
Hi again Lori…The MBE Library article had a link to another article on the web and the link for that article is below. The information in the link below includes most of the info in the MBE Library article, plus additional information, so if you can read this one, you don’t really need to be able to read the MBE Library article..

Oh My Gosh! How many Happy Hearts and Sighs of Relief you ALL are causing this morning!
From the bottom of my heart: THANKS TO ALL of YOU!
Many thanks Brian for your suggestions. I don’t have any icons at the top of my screen just search items such as Google, Inbox, Facebook etc. I had the same problem with the link to another article. Once in awhile I get a small magnifing glass icon, It’s at the top of my screen and I increased to 150% but it just worked for SpiritView not either of the articles.
