We must not attribute more and more intelligence to matter, but less and less, if we would be wise and healthy.
~ Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 62
To stay healthy, honor God, not matter, as the source of good health.
It’s the food of Truth that satisfies and brings the best nourishment.
It’s the energy of Spirit that puts bounce in your step and joy in your day.
It’s a cup of spiritual inspiration that gets you jump-started in the morning and ready to best face the day.
It’s the medicine of Mind that removes incapacitating fears and sickly beliefs.
It’s the Holy Spirit which fills you with the breath of Life.
It’s living in harmony with God that keeps one feeling their best.
The goodness of God doesn’t come from matter. It comes from Spirit.
Honor Spirit rather than matter, as the intelligent governing force in your life, and you’ll find everything working together better.
Thank you Evan.Such a powerful explanation and I shall read and reread it.
This is a great start for the day Evan and much needed. I have read it a few times and been changing where you say ‘you’ and ‘your’ to ‘my’ and ‘me’ relating it to myself, which has been very helpful. Thank you so much. L.X
Thank you. Appreciate the reminder.

Wonderful message. Thank you, Evan for your very helpful ideas.
Beautiful! Wise. Healthy!
Thanks!
Thank you Evan.
Wonderful, beautiful and powerful message! Everything belongs to God! Thank you very much, dear Evan! Have a spiritual day everybody!!
Very timely and helpful message to keep our thoughts on the
right track with our view, Spiritually satisfied – not materially,
generated. Matter never satisfies, but Truth does. Lovely
inspiration to hold on to today and always.
Certainly goes along with the responsive reading in this week’s lesson from Philippians four citation eight finally brother what’s over. Things are true whatsoever. Things are honest whatsoever. Things are just whatsoever. Things are pure whatsoever. Things are lovely whatsoever. Things are a good report if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise thing on these things.
I meant for my comment to go under my comment for Evans wonderful way to Think moment by moment.
Need to edit my voice. Dictation: think on these thinks
Love this!!! I did a search on JSHonline about looking at weight and health through a spiritual lens and you have written many great articles on that subject Evan. Thank you. ❣️
A needed message. Society and material thinking educate us to turn to matter for solutions for what seems lacking or discordant in our lives. It feels so easy to adopt this way of thinking.
The other day I woke up believing I had “not enough sleep” the night before. So my head said I would be tired and dragging all day, unfocused, unproductive etc.
This thinking went on for a while as I walked to the subway station. Then I remembered a statement from Evan’s linked article that morning on SV. The article seemed unrelated (was about praying for world events) but the line that struck me was, “God is in total control” and that a lie MUST yield to the truth of God’s allness.
I saw that I could surrender the wrong thoughts and just let God’s energy and allness take care of me. Like Evan says above, the Energy of Spirit and the Cup of Inspiration are available..
I had a very good and energy filled day, I even seemed more productive than on days when I had “enough sleep.” Hard to explain but it seemed like a different kind of energy. Very grateful to learn these truths!
