Live in the body of Spirit

October 26, 2026 | 15 comments

“For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens” KJV.

“We know that when these bodies of ours are taken down like tents and folded away, they will be replaced by resurrection bodies in heaven—God-made, not hand-made” The Message.

~ II Corinthians 5:1

We don’t have to wait to experience the freedom and health of our “resurrection body.”  It doesn’t come with death.  It comes with understanding.  We can experience Life in the body of Spirit now where health abounds, and there is no disease.

Mary Baker Eddy explains how to do this.  She writes, “Detach sense from the body, or matter, which is only a form of human belief, and you may learn the meaning of God, or good, and the nature of the immutable and immortal.  Breaking away from the mutations of time and sense, you will neither lose the solid objects and ends of life nor your own identity.  Fixing your gaze on the realities supernal, you will rise to the spiritual consciousness of being, even as the bird which has burst from the egg and preens its wings for a skyward flight” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 261).

What are you waiting for?  Rise!  Rise today!  

Let thought ascend into a consciousness of Life in Spirit where suffering physical sense disappears and thriving spiritual sense takes over.  

Live in the body of Spirit where all is well

  1. It can be very hard to detach sense from the body when it hurts. At times like this Love goes to my rescue. The Bible give me the sense that I am bound in God’s love and that love comforts and cares..Then my thoughts go to the go to God’s loving embrace and the body is at peace.

    1. Thank you, John, for sharing your experience with Love coming to the rescue. Very powerful. Your testimony gratefully reminds me of an experience I had last week. After several days of a an intermittent painful headache, the following Bible verse came to my rescue–

      John 14:18
      I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

      Thank you, John, for sharing. And, as always, thank you, Evan, for your ever inspiring words and ideas.

      1. Thank you Evan, also John, Barbara and Murph.

        Just what I need today, “I will not leave you comfortless”

        Perfect ♡_/|\_

    2. Thank you Evan and John…it made me think of the bible verse
      “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” (New International Version)
      A very comforting and truthful way to begin the week. Gratitude and Love to all❣️

  2. Such a blessing to read these helpful Truth. Thank you.
    I have found that watching various birds at a feeder can teach us
    valuable lessons. Some birds gulp down seed and fight other birds,
    as if it were a competition, so others do not get what is there. But
    some, like the sweet chickadees, joyfully take a seed and fly happily
    off with it in gratitude and peace. Isn’t it like “humanly” ways, also,
    having conflicts with others (wars) or with themselves over material
    beliefs that chase away Godly/Spiritual thoughts and cling to the
    mortal, whereas being joyful and appreciative of all that God has
    given and provides us with … brings more harmony and health to our
    lives.
