Reliable health

July 13, 2026 | 21 comments

If you ever harbor fear about your health, it’s a signal to strive for a higher understanding of health.

Health is not a state of matter.  It’s a state of Mind.  And divine Mind is always present supporting and maintaining health for you to express fully and abundantly as a child of God.

What I love to remember is that divine Mind’s provision of health is as certain as the ground that holds up our feet when we get out of bed in the morning.

Before you rise and get out of bed, do you worry that the floor won’t be next to your bed to hold up your feet when you stand up?  I doubt it.  The floor is always there.  You don’t even think about it.  You never worry about it.  The floor is faithfully present to hold up your feet.

The same rule applies to divine Mind holding up your health.  Mind is reliable.  It never fails to be Mind and to do what Mind does, which includes giving you reliable health.  You don’t have to ever worry about it.

We think we lack health when we seek it in matter.  But when we correct that error, and seek it in Mind instead, we find it, the most reliable health there is—divine Mind’s health!  

It’s your health to express without fail.

  1. Thank you Evan, this correlates so beautifully with the Golden Text from this week’s Bible Lesson.

    Isa 41:10 . . . I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

    Uplifted in thought this morning, a few words floated into my awareness, “joy, elation, progress, creation”

    Wishing my fellow SV’ers a joy-full Monday ♡

  2. With the Bible lesson, the Daily Lift and Evan’s chosen message here we are all so supported by the arms of Divine Mind….
    Blessings to everyone❣️

  3. Perfect message to start a road trip this morning! Thank you, Evan. Right along with the Lesson and the Daily Lift! We are all so blessed!

  4. What stood out to me dear Evan, in your wonderfully helpful post ,was the concept of us being The Child of God. What a blessing! A few years ago, when going to attend my annual Christian Science Student’s Association meeting in New York City, I stayed at High Ridge House instead of a hotel. While there I came across a little book they were selling called, “A Child of God and the ABCs” by Bonnie Loan. The book takes you through the whole alphabet with inspiring Truths: “A Child of God is Adored by God”, “A Child of God is Blessed by God”; A Child of God is; Created, Cared for and Comforted by God”, etc. all through the alphabet. I was so uplifted by applying this to myself (i.e. as the Child of God I am “held, helped and healed by God”, etc.). The author also encourages the reader to add their own alphabetic words – besides those she used. I’m so grateful to know I am the Child of God and God is bestowing so many blessings on us: health, happiness, right thought and right action! Thank you Evan for another inspiring post!

  5. Thank you Evan for uplifting us with Truth everyday through these daily posts. Really enjoy reading them as it’s exactly what I need to receive for the day!

  6. I rediscovered Lona Ingwerson’s lecture on the 23rd Psalm this weekend and can’t say enough about how uplifting and powerful it is. It is the answer to EVERY challenge facing us today. Please Google it if you haven’t listened. It’s on YouTube. ❣️

    1. Thank you dear Patty for reminding me about this lecture. I remember listening to this a couple of years ago and really loving it. It was a livestream sponsored by Third Church in NYC in 2023. I will listen today, need this very much. Here’s the link:

      1. Thank you so very much for that link. It provides so much real help as I pray and pray and do my best to continue all the rugged way. Evan is a blessing to all of us, as are each of you who add your contributions.

      2. Dear Patty and Rose, thank you so much for this link, I had not heard this before and absolutely loved it. What a treasure!! Thank you Evan for this posting and all of you for your thoughts and comments, treasures as well.

      3. Thanks, Rose, for posting a link to Lona Ingwerson’s lecture. I had never
        heard it before. It was excellent!

    2. Patty,
      Thanks so much for mentioning this lecture. I found it this morning
      and it was just what I needed. It was wonderful.
      Barb:)

  7. Evan, you and this message are so enormously helpful to me. It is all gradually sinking in, that great Health, Love, Safety, without opposites.

  8. Thanks Evan. Your comment brought to thought, from S&H p. 120:

    “Health is not a condition of matter, but of Mind (divine Mind); nor can the material senses bear reliable testimony on the subject of health. The Science of Mind-healing shows it to be impossible for aught but Mind to testify truly or to exhibit the real status of man.”

    Appreciate you all being here. I need these uplifting truths right now. Been trying to listen for God’s guidance about a physical challenge, but I’m starting to see I actually haven’t been really listening the right way, free of human outlining, expectations, preconceptions etc. and just open, yielding, moment to moment to get a sense of God’s loving direction. Starting to see now what I am to do and I will do it – a time set aside of undistured dedicated prayer. I’d been resisting this and was struggling to just find the “right thought” and get a quick healing. I’m sure many can relate to that.

    But God has a better idea for me, He wants to do some deeper work and I gratefully accept, and I admit that He is All there is and trust Him moment to moment. Appreciate your prayers and support. Love you all.
