  1. A Christian Scientist will follow the Matthew scripture: “ You are the light of the world”. Matt. 5:14.
    We will lead with the spirit not the flesh..
    We will persist in proving Truth is the source of all enlightenment..
    The shadow dim as we persist.. until all is light in our world of God’s creating..

    1. Thank you John.
      Your comment will be written in my spiritual journal this morning.
      Simply perfect and appreciated.

    2. Thank you John. Hymn 600 highlights the thought “You are the Light of the World.” This hymn is full of Light.

      Here is a link to the words:

      And a link to a YouTube video of it being sung:

  2. Angel of sun enter my solar centre and give the fire of life to my whole body.Rrom The Essene Tree Of Life.

  3. “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” – Psalm 119:105
    It takes but a moment to chase a dark thought away with the peace of Truth❣️

  4. mrs.eddy was writing of the scientist..Assiz?..looking at the egg yoke under the microscope..
    seeing the embryo, an angel standing in the sun.. or Man standing in the sun,…
    The Light within, not by solar, never broken, there are no shadows..Thank you every
    moment, Peace is Love nurturing our neighbours. Boundless Spirit, total celebration…

  5. Thank you dear Evan and all for the lovely message and inspiration today.
    The radiance of the sunshine helps to brighten a foggy morning here and
    gives support that is so much needed. The trees remind me of childhood when
    I used to do my homework within a cluster of birch trees in the woods, where
    things were safe and protected from the worldly issues that can seem to be
    so challenging at times. The peace that was sheltered within thought was/is
    so appreciated.
    Thank you, John and Rose, for the reminder of that beautiful hymn. The link
    did not work on the browser I use (DDG), but the video did and in the hymnal,
    the words shine.
    Thank you all for such heartwarming thoughts of divine Love.

  6. Mary Baker Eddy reminds us that there is always Light … that it is just error belief that there is darkness … paraphrasing 🙂 Evan, thank your for today’s post “keep your face always towards the sunshine!”

  7. “Rejoicing in Our Present Perfection” by Carol Miller C.S.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HRte9eVTUM&t=1s
    Excerpt from the lecture: “The second painting is entitled “Daniel’s answer to the King” and it shows Daniel with his focus turned from the lions to the light, to his king. You’ll notice that the lions haven’t gone anywhere and that Daniel’s hands are still bound behind his back, but their presence and activity no longer have his attention. We too can turn from the roar of mortal mind to our King, God. There’s no need to look back. We face the light of Truth and go forward.”

    1. Thank you for sharing this inspirational talk, dear Joy. I am finding it very
      helpful. I love where she writes, that treatment is “absolute acknowledgement
      of ever presence of infinite perfection”. And also how all things good are to
      be “as expected”. Lovely thoughts to hold on to.

    2. Wow dear Joy, thank you very much for posting this talk! Here it’s 4 am and I listened to this glorious talk. It is utmost helpfu, yea healing!

      I fully agree and tune in what Carol says . I also found those truths in the talk, Carol is mentioning very stunning. Will listen to it again during the day.

  8. Thanks Evan thank you friends,
    Let us not our “ light “ goes away in any moment , otherwise God the infinite good Spirit to all, will take more time to recognize us.

  9. Thank you dear SV friends for the hymns and article and inspiring Bible verses and loving comments!

    For me the light to which we shall look is the Christlight which when recognised enlightens our clear spiritual understanding where there is no darkness at all!

    Thanks dear Evan for todays uplifting verse and foto!♡
