Admit only the power of good if you wish to stay healthy and well!
Mary Baker Eddy wrote, “Our proportionate admission of the claims of good or of evil determines the harmony of our existence, — our health, our longevity, and our Christianity” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 167).
Evil would claim to tyrannize our thought, make us afraid, and even suffer. But evil has no power to influence thought, to make us afraid or to suffer.
Any seeming effect from evil is the effect of mesmerism.
Evil seems real to the mind that believes in it. But to the Mind of God, good is the only power, the only influence, and the only deciding factor.
To stay healthy, put on the Mind of God, and have faith only in the operation and activity of good. Let Truth and Love dissolve any suggestions of evil. Prove evil powerless to affect you, and stay in a good place physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Stay in the Mind of God—in the Mind of infinite Good—and thrive!
Thank you Evan . Such a clear concise, progressive thought. Perfect! I am sending this to a friend in Africa who will like this very much.

Thank you Angie, that is a very helpful article..
thank you to Spirit View, always!
I am so thrilled you found this article Angie!!! My husband was an artist and he told me of a wonderful demonstration he had! A submission to do an illustration for an album cover was due the next day but he was supposed to serve in the Reading Room. He was a bit torn about serving and was tempted to see if someone else could do it; but he felt it was his duty and privilege to serve and no harm could come from doing so. While at the Reading Room he found and read the article “Symphonic Being”. Late that evening he was struggling with ideas for the commission – it was of Andre Previn conducting Rachmaninoff with the London Symphony! He remembered the idea of “creation, expression, and control” and had an “aha moment”. He drew Rachmaninoff at the piano with notes above his head (creation), next to him he drew some of the orchestra (expression), next to them he drew the conductor with his baton (control). RCA loved the concept and Bill got the commission! I wish I could share a photo of the album cover here, I just remember how awed and grateful my husband was at the inspiration he received and the wonderful day he had serving in the reading room. It means so much to me to read the article that inspired him. By the time I knew him and he told me about this, he couldn’t remember the article. As soon as I read those words I knew this was the article that had inspired him. Thank you and thanks to Evan for these wonderful Spirit views!!!
What a wonderful, inspiring experience, Sharon! Thank you for sharing it!!

Thank you Evan and Angie for jump starting my day.
Thanks Evan and Agie:
i’m keeping my thoughts focus each day, that it is only good that keeps us going.
We cannot be memirise by other thoughts, which are not of God.
Today’s SpiritView is so filled with Truth, Life and Love and I am so grateful. Evan, you are such a great listener and always provide us with the perfect Truth. Angie, you too ! Thank you and all the contributors to this precious online publication. It is like a flashlight pointing us always to Divine Love.
Thank you Evan! And Angie, your inspiration from it…
A great article Angie thank you and thank you Evan.. wonderful thoughts to start my day.
Thank you, Evan, you inspire all of us! Harold Rogers’ article went right to my printer! In the early 60’s, he and his wife played a significant role in my experience and I have been always grateful!
There is no power apart from God good, taking care of me and all His beloved children.
We can’t continue to be mesmerized, we “rise in the strength of Spirit to resist all that is unlike good. God has made man capable of this, and nothing can vitiate the ability and power divinely bestowed on man.” (S&H p. 393
Thanks everyone for your dedication, love and persistence in truth and showing up here on SpiritView, it means so much to me.
Sharon what a beautiful story thank you for sharing and Angie thank you for sharing Made my day and thank you Evan for Spirtview its the start of my everyday
Dearest Evan,- your weekly messages of Truth and Love are powerful catalysts that tend to shift the sluggish human mind from it’s indifference and apathy to the awareness of spiritual goodness, beauty, and the divine effervescence of Soul! What a grateful group we are to have discovered this amazing platform! And Angie, you consistently find articles that perfectly compliment Evan’s posts. You are masterful at this research. Thank you for unveiling this profound article by Harold Rogers. So much substance to it.
Heartfelt gratitude, and a beautiful day to all contributors.
Thankyou for the article Angie. So many times I have wondered about the order of thought and how it works. I especially liked the part where Harold Rogers explains” Over the ages human beings have been falsely educated to believe—through what they have observed through their limited physical senses—that the human body operates independently of the human mind.”.. and further on “Christian Science, however, refers to the human mind as a mental mechanism, a mechanism that controls the physical mechanism, or the human body. This means something is out of kilter in the mental mechanism. For this reason those who practice the Science of Christ do not direct the spiritual therapy of Christian Science to the physical body. They seek to restore the concordant functioning of the mental mechanism. They understand that the correct adjustment of thought will express itself in the harmonious adjustment of the physical mechanism, thereby restoring health.” Great article…definitely a keeper to study.
Thanks Evan for bringing this subject to consideration.
Thanks to everyone for their contribution to this blog. Evan, so appreciate your getting us started to “stay in the Mind of God”. Angie, thoroughly enjoyed the article you found, and Sharon what a lovely demonstration you shared related to this article.
I like to check back during the day to see what has been added as comments as there is always much good being expressed.
Thank you, Angie, for the very inspiring article and Sharon for sharing ;your experience. How blessed we are to have SpiritView – thanks Evan!
I came back this morning to reread yesterday’s SpiritView. Thank you Evan and all of you for your comments. This is all quite a treasure for getting off to great start for the day and I’m thinking it would be a great way to complete the day by rereading SpiritView, other readings provided, and all of your comments.
