keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies.

Timeless wisdom and joyful words. Thank you Evan.
Perfect wisdom for the day. Thank you, Evan!
Joy and gratitude are filling my thoughts after reading today’s SpiritView. As I woke up this morning, I had made up my mind that I was starting on a very special “life mission”. Today’s SpiritView is my “jump start “, it’s perfect! A year ago my wife (not a Christian Scientist but supportive) had a stroke. I am now her caregiver. Recently I found that I have a strain of Parkinsons. I am working with a practitioner both in support of my wife and myself. As I read today’s SpiritView I almost cried. I do want to enjoy many happy days for me and my wife and am working towards success, I think of the SpiritView family as my support team. I would welcome any sharing thoughts. Warm hugs and thank yous to all, And thank you Evan for SpiritView
Jim,you will not be short of prayers for you both today,I can guarantee that.

Mrs Eddy says on page 258 in Science and Health…’ the human capacities are enlarged and perfected in proportion as humanity gains the TRUE conception of man and God”

Hi Jim and wife,
The entire Bible Lesson for October 7-13, 2024, “Are Sin, Disease, and Death Real?” is apropos. This quote S&H 259:1 is especially poignant for me :
“Man is not absorbed in Deity, and cannot lose his individuality, for he reflects eternal life; nor is he an
isolated, solitary idea, for he represents infinite Mind,
the sum of all substance”
Chew on that one a bit, my friend.

How good to know that medical prognosis is NEVER the final word. God’s Word is. Here is a wonderful approach to care giving, dear Jim!

Such a peaceful message and lovely spiritually enlightened thoughts portrayed. In a
world that seems to be swimming in lies, it is so good to always try to be honest and
stay within our spiritual view of things .. that is, enjoying life and living and seeing
happy days.
Dear Jim … your kindness and sweetness will be rewarded. Your consistent knowing
that challenges are not really part of the perfection that God knows ,,. I think is
important to not accept that any dis – ease is a part of you or anyone. It is often stated
when mortals label themselves with this or that sort of disease, claiming it as their own.
“I have” or “my” – labeled false belief … It may appear to be, but it is not, really. The only
True being that you and everyone has is God’s Truth and Peace. I love how you mention
the support of the SpiritVeiw family. What a wonderful concept, as the Truth of our
reflection of God is always shared here.
Dear Jim- God has promised to be with us in trouble and to honor us with a long life!
“He shall call upon Me, and I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him with long life. I will satisfy him and show him my salvation” psalms 91::15-16
That means you are safe in God’s care!
Evan, exactly. Celebrait the good already received.
The first part of the scripture shared up top (keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies) made me think of Psalms 51:15, “Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise.” Another translation says, “Help me to speak, Lord, and I will praise you.” We can rely on God to show us what to say or do in any situation. This will lead to happy outcomes and many reasons to praise Him.
