How can one believe there is a God when so many bad things are happening in the world?
I explain how faith in God helps us find a better world in this vlog filmed in the White Sands National Park, New Mexico, September 2024.
There is something better

The good news is you can change your thought for the better and then you can help others change their thoughts for a better world.. once we really experience this gift from God to us and others the world doesn’t not look so bleak because you can see a remedy at hand.
We can have great compassion for a world in need and still celebrate there is a remedy for ever ill.
Thank you John especially where you say
“ We can have great compassion for a world in need and still celebrate there is a remedy for ever ill”.
Thanks.
Easter demonstrated is hope exercised. I will stretch my belief to reach spiritual understanding today. Thank you.
I’m having trouble getting Soirit View lately through my email. I’ve tried to install the link on my phone homepage, but it doesn’t connect.
Hi, a friend had the same challenge. I texted her the link and now it connects
GOD AND OUR ONENESS
Father, what is it I need to know this minute
Not tomorrow’s minute, or next weeks minute
This minute
It all comes down to; we are always in the exact minute with you, always
Thanks Father! Thanks for keeping us always close under your wings of LoveOneness/no separation
Thanks for making every minute ours ❤️
Thank you for this beautiful message.
God never stopped being Love
“God never stopped being Love”…that really says it all Anne. Thank you.

*You can listen to it too.
Perfect! Thank you, J!
Thank you very much. dear J. Very interesting, about an hour before I listened to the uplifting online Wed Service of TMC. The subject also was, not we but God battles for us and is always the winner! It was a wonderful healing Service, and one can listen tomorrow to the replay the whole day until Friday morning.
Thank you very much, dear Evan for your today’s healing Vlog! While listening to you and reading the Text with the Vlog, it came to mind that there is no error outside divine omnipotent Mind, and very clear what Christ Jesus said “the kingdom of God is within us, is at hand.”
Wow I notice that the leaven of Christian Science is working for good and for healing in the world and in us. I am very thankful for Christ Jesus and Mrs. Eddy for their grand teaching and healing works for humanity!
I am convinced that he only way to change the world for the better is to extend the ministry of Jesus through our living and being spiritually minded. Thank you, Evan. Peace to all.
Thank you Evan for the reminder!!!!
Excellent! Thanks Evan!
My goodness what a title and how on point you are!! It is true, there are many horrible things happening in the world. But,..there are many wonderful things happening too. Are you looking at those things? Are you listening to the people who reveal those things?
This morning I looked at a post on Facebook where someone had their whole dining room table covered in wine bottles they had just purchased. They seemed to be happy about this and all I could think was why would someone want to numb themselves to life by being smashed all the time? That isn’t living. How do they not understand this? Maybe listening to “bad news on tv” is also a way of being smashed though? Being numb to the good?
Getting out in nature is one of the ways I love to experience life. Being surrounded by all that beauty…making a snow angel, making a snowman, playing in the snow, watching a dog be filled with joy playing in the snow. Joy is all around us and it is so simple… It is everywhere… butterflies floating on a light breeze, wildflowers in a meadow, a bluebird sunny day or a light rain hitting warm concrete, a rainbow, a double rainbow, a light breeze on a warm day, the understanding of how wonderful small things are, living in the present…every moment of it.
Change the station you’re listening to and thrive…
Luke 12:4-5 Jesus says;
4 “I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more.
5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.
(Or you give the power to throw you into hell)
Love this too;

The definition of hell is looking for validation and/or security outside of yourself instead of looking to God and seeing the good God has created.
Our job is to see Truth when someone is trying to present a lie to us. Do we see through it? It can feel very painful if we don’t. But once we see Truth it no longer is.
“Things do not change, we change.”
Henry David Thoreau
One additional thought, is evil as dominating as the news presents? Have we all done the homework of getting facts rather than impressions? Perhaps only 5% of events of the day in our world were classified as evil and 95% of the events of the day in our world were classified as good, but just didn’t get the media attention…
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart…”
How very soothing, listening to this vlog, Evan, several times, and soaking in it’s
calming message. Thank you and to all of the comforting thoughts following this
inspiration. Sometimes challenges can seem overwhelming where we have exhausted
options and wonder where else to turn and then yet another challenge comes on top
of the others. It can seem hopeless at times, but the gentle thoughts of faith in God is
so helpful in trying to overcome these mortal seeming setbacks …
But with God’s all presence and power, right solutions will lead to a perfect outcome.
Patience and trust in God is the key. A chuckle comes to mind where the person says,
” Oh Lord, please give me patience… But I need it Now! ” : ) It is good to know a
solution is already met. We need only to realize it. “Trials are proofs of God’s care”. (MBE)
Thank you dear Angel! Such a comforting and loving message you give us here! I had to laugh a lot about your funny “Patience” sentence!
I am very happy and thankful for Evans comforting and healing message.
Evan, thank you for looking so joyful to us on the Vlog!
I had to read this paragraph 5 or 6 times recently to get it. But it explains how God has no part of all the bad things in the world. SH page 119 first paragraph:
When we endow matter with vague spiritual power, — that is, when we do so in our theories, for of course we
Unescapable
dilemma
cannot really endow matter with what it does not and cannot possess, — we disown the Almighty, for such theories lead to one of two things. They either presuppose the self-evolution and self-government of matter, or else they assume that matter is the product of Spirit. To seize the first horn of this dilemma and consider matter as a power in and of itself, is to leave the creator out of His own universe; while to grasp the other horn of the dilemma and regard God as the creator of matter, is not only to make Him responsible for all disasters, physical and moral, but to announce Him as their source, thereby making Him guilty of maintaining perpetual misrule in the form and under the name of natural law.
