Demonstrate a peaceful home

October 23, 2013 | 20 comments

Would you like to feel more peace in your home? Perhaps have family members getting along better with each other? More respect, more gratitude and goodwill expressed?

If so, you can make the difference.

It’s tempting at times to feel out of control, like we have no choice but to suffer from other people’s callous and indifferent attitudes. But this is not the case. We are always in control of our experience. It’s part of our God-given dominion over the earth and every experience upon it, to be able to turn bad situations around and see them improve. This rule applies to demonstrating a peaceful and joyous home.

True home is a consciousness of Truth and Love. It’s a state of mind celebrating the presence of Christ.

Do you celebrate the presence of Christ in your home, or do you let your thinking be pulled to a low level of remorse, fear, intimidation, self-righteousness, harsh criticism or pointed accusation?

Who do you see in control of the mental atmosphere in your home: anger or Christ, neglect or Christ, indifference or Christ, immorality or Christ?

See Christ in control!

Demonstrate Christ in control by being the healing presence of Christ.

You are never helpless. There is always something positive and spiritual you can do to improve the mental environment in your home.

Christ is bigger and more influential than negative mortal attitudes.

When you understand home from a spiritual point of view, you realize that no one can wreck your home. No mortal can deprive you of the blessings of home. No one can make you feel less at home, or separate you from its joys and freedoms.

Home is not a material place that can be violated. It is a spiritual state of mind that can be demonstrated.

A peaceful home is governed by God, not by man. And it’s yours to enjoy—forever!

  1. Beautiful and effectual description of what a demonstration of home involves. Thanks so much! Timely angel guest to entertain.

  2. Thanks, Evan. This goes right along with a healing thought that I thought of during the night. God controls every facet of my life. Rejoice!

  3. Great article, Thank you! I love the comforting message. I posted this on Twitter. Via @unityoffairfax

    Are you on Twitter? I couldn’t find you. Lots of references there to you, though!

    1. No, I am not on twitter. I suppose it’s a media I’ll have to learn soon. Trying to understand Facebook right now!

      Smiles,

  4. Just amazing. I’ve been dealing with this and I was coming to this conclusion, but I was having difficulty with the over-all picture. Thank you Evan once again for your insight, truly inspired!

  5. It seems as we share a life together, the years go by, and controlling factors seem to appear.
    Possibly this is a form of hostility that tries to gain control, and has been penned up in negative thoughts, now it is my time to let you known what has been bothering me all of these years?

    By releasing these thoughts through acknowledging the Christ that sets the thinking of positive Godly Thoughts, a happier household can be reached and maintained.

    Thanks Evan for reestablishing what should have been there all the time.

    Again, you have met the mark for a happier life.

  6. Evan, thanks for this message, you get five stars on this one. Instead of looking for the exit door from a difficult home, I can see now what we really want is the exit door from the human mind and sure entrance into the Divine Mind, the Father’s house, oneness, where harmony reigns. Thanks for this.

  7. I found that demonstrating this spiritual truth brings instant change. A change in my thought to understand this idea, that Evan so beautifully wrote about today, brought harmony to my family. I realized other people don’t have to change, I have to change and demonstrate what I know to be true. I was looking for change in the wrong place, I had to give mortal mind a swift kick out the door and see Christ in control! Thank you Evan!

  8. I have always loved the fact that we carry our home with us wherever we are. No matter where I have lived all I had to do was bring Christ like qualities with me. Even living in a motor home for over a year I felt God’s presence and loved every moment of this experience. I am thrilled to see God’s shaping of the home’s I have loved. It is also true we must rid our homes of the “unwanted” guests. If we don’t, the good guests won’t want to stay. As we are told, “stand porter at the door of thought” only let the good in!

  9. Your list of all the feelings and tendencies that sometimes get projected onto our homes didn’t include loneliness, something I’ve been struggling with. First an empty nest; and then “widow-hood”. Rugged mountains to climb.

    Thanks for the boost.

  10. My home is very harmonious. But my country is not. So I changed the word home for country, and found it to be a perfect prayer. Thanks!

  11. Thanks you Evan. This cleared out an old negative for me.
    And I adjusted two sentences and put them on a big stickie note smack in the center of my computer monitor to remind me…..

    I am always in control of my experience.
    I am never helpless.

  13. I and only I, with the help of God and his Christ; (That spiritual line that connects man to God.) are the only and sure way of having complete control over mortal mal-practice in every thing we do and think.

  14. Usually I read this post in the morning but today I read it at 6:10 p.m. and if you only knew what had transpired today in my home, my consciousness, you would know how timely this clear message is for me this moment. Allowing the Christ who is bigger and more influential than negative mortal attitudes to fill my consciousness with the love that is needed to heal a dear
    one’s pain, is my answer. Thank you so very much, Evan.

  15. HI evan…Again…this lovely blog doesn’t print well because of the dark and beautiful but busy background. It looks in print preview like there is a white backgrd…but when it prints, it prints with all the colors and the print is not readable…iti just disappears.

    Please can you make it print with the white backgrd and colors around it…or something???

    Thanks, Barbara
