Healing fear of variants

September 23, 2021 | 33 comments

There is considerable fear about the variant forms the coronavirus is taking around the world, with medical authorities concerned that the virus is mutating into ever more difficult forms to control with vaccines. There is a spiritual perspective that can dissolve this fear and maintain health.

Rather than focusing on the mutation of a virus, which is the mutation of mortal belief, the more constructive route to safety is to focus on understanding the truth about health that prevents contagion and infection.

Health is not a variable state of matter. Health is a state of Mind. It’s not a state of the human mind, which can fluctuate, but of the divine Mind that each of us express fully and abundantly as children of God.

As we know the truth about spiritual health, we protect ourselves from losing health.

Health is a fixed state, a permanent condition of our being in Spirit. It is not subject to a virus, or susceptible to contagion. Like a circle is always round no matter what symbols are assembled around it, we are always healthy as spiritual children of God no matter what variants of mortal belief seem to circulate around us.

It doesn’t matter what mutation the coronavirus takes, none of them are a threat to our health coming from God. They are all harmless. Health from Spirit is impermeable, invincible.

Celebrate the truth about your health! It doesn’t vary, and no variant of mortal belief is a threat to it. Understand the truth about health, and stay healthy.

    1. “Fear becomes a never ending game.” So true. So simple. So ripe for destruction. Refuse to play the game/take the fear bait.

  1. God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
    (II Timothy 1:7)

    We can also know how safe we are from every mounting false fear about the virus and
    so-called mortal mind’s continual fear of it appearing in new forms. We can know that

    ‘He will not afflict.’ (Job 37:23)

    We will believe only in God’s loving care for us all every moment wherever we
    are and whoever we are with. We are all the blessed of the Lord.

    Just as Ken says, a variant of nothing is always nothing – and the somethingness
    of God’s perfect pure creation is always present.

    1. Thank you Maggie for your statement of Truth that we can believe only in God’s loving care for us ALL, EVERY moment, wherever we are and whoever we are with, that we are All the blessed of God. God’s reflection has no capacity to believe anything else. That is a wonderful treatment!

  2. We must always relie on God’s loving care and protection.
    God is our ultimate health and and nothing can cause deseases..

  3. Thanks Evan. I really like the metaphor of the circle as it not only symbolizes completeness , nothing added or taken away, but it is enclosed like a protective bubble. The variants being variations of human belief is a good way to see this situation..they may “circulate around us” but as symbols, not realities. I’ve read and re-read this 3 times and it’s very helpful to me.

  4. All is always well. Because God saw everything that was made by Him. And BEHOLD! IT WAS VERY GOOD. PROMISES KEPT. NO VARIENCE WITH GOD. THANKS TO ALL..

  5. Thank you Evan! Mrs. Eddy reminds us…”Disease has no intelligence with which to move itself about or to change itself from one form to another. If disease moves, mind, not matter, moves it; therefore be sure that you move it off. Meet every adverse circumstance as its master.” (S&H p. 419) Thanks everyone!

  6. God’s idea, man and the universe,
    is the ONLY Idea.

    There is–there can be–no OTHER Mind,
    with OTHER Ideas, than the One infinite divine Mind.

    The One All-Mind–(how could there be more than ALL?)
    –has ALL the ideas there are. No room for anything else. There could not possibly be any variation on this Fact.

    Amen

  7. These verses from hymn 160 come to mind in wiping away the challenge of covid and variants:
    “Aye, darkling sense, arise, go hence! / Our God is good. / False fears are foes—truth tatters those, / When understood.
    Love looseth thee, and lifteth me, / Ayont hate’s thrall: / There Life is light, and wisdom might, / And God is All.”
    Yes! God’s knows His-Her creation as pure, whole and complete which no variant or dis-ease can touch or compromise. The Truth of man’s origin and Life is that we are always under the care and protection of our Creator, our Father-Mother God. Truth obliterates fear, material sense, & media forecasts of trauma. Thanks to all contributors who continue to share the Truth about man being the beloved child of God. This Truth includes every man, woman, child and even our animal friends!

  8. Thanks Evan for this very insightful lesson on the the nothingness of matter and the allness of Spirit. As this is digested and understood fear simply disappears.

  9. I am liking the word Immutable in this week’s lesson. I know it means “unchangeable” but because we’re using ZOOM so often these days and mute is one of our options… I like the idea of immutable being the unsilence-able voice of Truth. Add to that the unchangeableness of Truth and the notion that the virus can mutate is nullified/neutralized/annihilated. It has no voice. Love the picture too. THANK YOU

  10. All these beliefs about variation and mutation of matter can have no effect on Being. Nothing, no matter how loud it tries to shout, can change the facts of being. The facts of being are that God is All in All and His Allness is completely good.

    “Every good gift and every perfect gift (such as our health) is from above and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is NO VARIABLENESS, neither shadow of turning.” (James 1:17). Appreciate your sticking with this Evan, to help uncover Truth. Love to all.

    1. Yes, thank you Evan for your continued unflinching proclamations of Truth.
      Thank you all for expressing conviction and encouragement – so needed and received with gratitude.
      I am “hanging” with the the idea that “GOD is the ONLY activity.”

  11. “Undisturbed amid the jarring testimony of the material senses, Science. still enthroned, is unfolding to mortals the immutable, harmonious, divine Principle,- is unfolding Life and the universe, ever present and eternal”. Mortal mind’s terrorism cannot touch the real man,– the peaceful, healthy, innocent, uncontaminated representative of divine Love.

  12. A reminder to be vigilant. Guarding thought from trespassing evil beliefs and false evidences.
    Confidence this morning to all,

    Page 469:21, Science and Health, “We bury the sense of infinitude, when we admit that, although that God is infinite, evil has a place in this infinity, for evil can have no place, where all space is filled with God.”

    Romans 15:13, Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing (*understanding*),that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

    588:7 S & H, “Holy Ghost. Divine Science; the development eternal life, Truth, and Love.”

    God’s perfect Love fills all of us today. Our heaven is intact. Our protection is ever at hand.
    Lovingkindness, David

  13. The aerial view of the forest in fall adornment is so very beautiful.
    Time for a small airplane ride to take in all the purity and loveliness of the fall season.
    Getting above all discord reveals the gladness and eternal beauty of God’s creation.
    Always ever present and joyful. Thank you Evan and everyone.

  14. Excellent Clarity !!♡
    A sanctified Peace always has met and always will meet every human need.
    Spiritual Health Is Only that. (Period/full stop)
    Once again you covered all bases in your article ‘Healing fear of variants ‘, Evan.
    Thank you ♡

  15. Thank you Evan and everyone for such helpful comments. Angie, the article you directed us to illustrates so clearly how we must keep to our resolve to refuse mortal mind and its negativeness any hold on our thought. Nothing to get in by the back door…..remember we are the perfect image of our great Cause, Divine Mind ….all we need to know❣️

    Ps…tried to post earlier….let’s hope this is successful.

    1. Love that statement along with the story of little Tommy who knew how to esactly use that statement when a claim of the flu threatened him. Thanks for sharing.

  16. Thanks dear Evan for this utmost comfort you are giving us with this SpiritView including a foto with autumn atmosphere.
    You said “Understand the Truth about Health and stay healthy.” If one reads your today’s SpiritView thoroughly we then do understand that Truth about our Health coming steadily to us from almighty God, and we can celebrate omnipresent and omipotent Truth about our wonderful God-like being! We can work on it with our honest prayers! I am very grateful for this loving and healing treatment, dear Evan which is so helpful and gives us freeing assurance about our God-given immunity and therewith our total Health which is purely spiritual!♡

  17. The variants of HEALTH are wholeness, holiness, Oneness, Allness as in one with the Divine All and Onliness, “center and circumference”, as Mrs. Eddy writes. Completeness, nowness, perfection, at-one-ment..
