“Material sense does not unfold the facts of existence; but spiritual sense lifts human consciousness into eternal Truth.” (Science and Health, page 95)

The physical senses may provide information. They offer us a picture of things that seems tangible and reliable. Our senses can show us beauty and flavor and color and music. But through these five material receivers, we can also become aware of loss, of pain, of discord.

The invariable truth can’t be revealed by means of that which is so changeable, so mixed in quality, and so bound up in individual perspective. On the other hand, our spiritual sense provides us with enduring Truth. It is reliably right, always showing us God’s vision, His creation, His true goodness and Life.

We appreciate keen physical senses. Let’s even more so honor our spiritual senses and trust the inspiration they give to us. Spiritual sense lifts us above the variable, fearful, limited human perception of reality, where we can awake to the facts of our existence. This inner voice, God speaking within you, knows more about your Life than a nerve can tell you. It knows infinitely more about Truth than human opinion can give you.

And spiritual sense is not subject to material conditions. It remains whole and ready and active. You always have access to it. Listen with your heart. Turn off the inaccurate noise of physical testimony and hear reality singing its song of Life for you and for all.

Daily Inspiration, March 6th

“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth…” (I Corinthians 2: 12-13)

We gain awareness of God and His blessings in many ways. We can read the Scriptures, hear inspired speakers, and find enlightenment in prayer. These awaken us to God’s goodness—His qualities that are free and at hand.

And having gained consciousness of these gifts to us, we can make them known to others. We can share our understanding of God and His healing presence. This effective teaching and speaking and giving isn’t something governed or motivated by human opinions, or expressed in a way that is measured by formulas or rules.

Our gracious praise and our ministry, is the activity of the Holy Ghost. This is the Christ making itself known to us, not by material information, but by the spirit within. It is the Love that touches us where words can’t reach and the Soul that moves our hearts to joy and awe.

As we receive this precious Holy Ghost, this dawning glory of God, so we must share it. We can gratefully let go of the need for humanly perfect presentations, and instead allow that profound feeling that touched our hearts, to radiate forth in the way in which we give, live, and love.

Daily Inspiration, March 1st

“Do not let evil defeat [conquer; overcome] you, but defeat [conquer; overcome] evil by doing good.” (Ephesians 12: 21, Expanded Bible)

Sometimes it feels like the only way to combat the evil, the injustice, the darkness, we see in the world and in our personal lives, is to lash back in anger. Self-justification is alluring, and we may feel that our outrage is reasonable and necessary.

And yet, how much good does striking back, either literally or in our thoughts, really do us or anyone else? We can go into attack mode, and yet that leaves us fully engaged in conflict and hate when these are, in truth, the very things we likely oppose. Righteous anger seems honorable, but it should only motivate us to rise higher so that we may overcome not only the trouble we see, but the feelings within that are uncomfortable and unhealthy.

Let’s defeat the evil by doing good. Let’s remember that goodness and love have true healing power, and that while we can be alert to evil and ignorance, the solution is not to throw gasoline on the fire. Instead we can douse it with the cleansing grace of Love, kindness, gentleness. We honor God by relaxing our clenched fists and using them to hold a hand, caress an ache, and to uplift one another and by doing so, ourselves as well.

Daily Inspiration, February 27th

“Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else. For we are each responsible for our own conduct.” (Galatians 6: 4-5, New Living Translation)

This is sage advice. Comparing ourselves to others is a distraction from doing our own work and doing it well. When we look away from our tasks, we are likely to make mistakes and miss details. A carpenter checking out another craftsman’s work while trying to wield a hammer, will likely miss the nail and maybe hit something unintended!

This biblical admonition is practical, but it also resonates with spiritual truth. We are each responsible for our own conduct, as the message says, and our true job satisfaction is found as we remember that it is all really between you and God. Your employment and enjoyment are specifically designed by God to please Him and to also please you, who He knows so well.

Trust God enough to trust yourself. Your art, your expressiveness, your ideas, your output, may not look like anyone else’s. It is incomparably yours, and it is a gift of God to you. The unique way in which you radiate God’s goodness and utilize His qualities, is just what you need to be doing. No one can do your work for you. And no one can do your work better than you can.

Keep your eyes on your own paper, as my grammar school teachers used to say! You don’t need to copy or to cheat or to compare. You have God guiding your hand to do what only you can magnificently do!

Daily Inspiration, February 22nd

“Heaven is not a locality, but a divine state of Mind in which all the manifestations of Mind are harmonious and immortal, because sin is not there and man is found having no righteousness of his own, but in possession of ‘the mind of the Lord,’ as the Scripture says.” (Science and Health, page 291)

Heaven is not a location or a plane of existence beyond our reach today. Heaven is a state of thought. We achieve a taste of this paradise in each moment that we connect consciously with the divine Mind, God.

For heaven is creation as God conceived it. He is the One Mind and His ideas constitute the realm of reality. These thoughts are controlled by His wisdom and His Love and are without limits. We may believe that we are separate from this blissful state of being, but that is perception, not Truth.

If we yield up the ego that agrees to limits and listen to that consciousness that is universal Truth—one and pure and righteous—we perceive heaven. It isn’t in the material world to be found nor can it be lost in matter. It is sustained in that “mind of the Lord” that we possess. We have access to this heavenly perspective, because we are one with God, with Truth, with Life, and with Love.

Harmony and immortality are not behind some pearly gates. They are already in your thought to be realized. Trust those holy moments that you feel at times. These are more real and right and healing and true than the parade of earthly concepts that want to keep you anxious and small. Listen to the heart and soul that God gave you, the one that knows that peace is here and ours to realize, in this moment, on this day, in our expansive and awakened thinking!

Daily Inspiration, February 20th

“As for me, I shall see Your face in righteousness; I will be [fully] satisfied when I awake [to find myself] seeing Your likeness.” (Psalms 17: 15, Amplified Bible)

Isn’t it wonderful to wake up to a day feeling excited, happy, grateful? Does it sometimes seem like those days are not as plentiful as we’d like?

Let’s see the value of waking in the way that the psalmist expresses here. We can awake to the thought of God, seeing His face—His loving and faithful and approving countenance—before us. We can choose to turn toward Truth and Life and Love when we begin our day, rather than to let the mortal mind set an agenda, one that is uncertain, troubling, or dull.

We have a choice in our days and in moments of our life to wake up to what is true. It is seeing that in God’s face is our very own selfhood. We are the reflection of His qualities and His contentment. We are His image and likeness. Our satisfaction does not come from being persons that have a certain goal to hit, a personality or body that is ideal according to a biased human view, a presentation of perfection as the world might measure it.

Our satisfaction is awakening to see God and to recognize that we are just like Him. We are His own idea expressed, and He is pleased in us, in this moment, in every moment, because we are what He saw fit to make.

Let’s see God’s face rightly. See His smile upon you, His loving tender regard for who you really are, and His assurance that today is your day, one full of the very light that is the radiance of you!

Daily Inspiration, February 15th

“And [Jesus] woke up, rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, ‘Hush now! Be still!’ The wind dropped and everything was very still. ‘Why are you so frightened? What has happened to your faith?!’ he asked them.” (Mark 4: 39-40, JB Phillips New Testament)

The disciples were freaking out. They were in a boat with their Master and a great storm rose up, battering the craft and shattering their peace of mind. Jesus remained asleep as this tempest tossed them about.

Eventually, the frightened students woke their teacher up, frantic and disturbed. Jesus remained peaceful. With a word, he stilled the storm, and turned to his disciples with the question of their faith, a topic he had just been teaching about earlier that day.

Jesus wasn’t being harsh with them. He simply expected that his lessons to them would have been their refuge of calm and trust. Jesus was undisturbed because he knew that a physical storm and a storm of fear are no power against the Truth of God and His infinite presence and Love.

The winds and waves of sense and circumstance, of doubt and anxiety, are merely appearances of trouble. Jesus wasn’t ignoring the storm, just knocked out and sleeping through something terrible. He knew that the real was the still, the calm, the protection, the guidance, the infinite serenity of God.

Let’s know this as well. Let’s take Jesus at his proven word, keep the faith, and know our true dominion through the power of God and His Love.

Daily Inspiration, February 13th

“Love is impartial and universal in its adaptation and bestowals.” (Science and Health, page 13)

Divine Love doesn’t play favorites. This perfect and infinite Love doesn’t exclude or neglect or express in a limited or selfish way. God is Love, and this Love is ours at all times, fully expressed and within us as well as surrounding us.

Valentine’s Day is a sweet time to share our appreciation for individuals in our lives. But I also like to think of it as a reminder of Love itself. It is an occasion to cherish Love’s Source, availability, precision, power, saving goodness, and caring and protecting presence.

We are expressions of divine Love, not the personal receivers or givers of it. We all radiate God’s Love, as the proof and object of His own intention. We are a part of this universal and powerful affection, and it can’t divide us, nor does it compete. No one is left out or less encompassed in this embrace. Each of us can feel that spiritual Love in just the way we may need, in each moment. God knows us as we are and comes to us with accuracy and immediacy.

Let’s accept and rejoice in this impartial and universal Love and share it freely and generously with all, today and every day!

Daily Inspiration, February 8th

“With all your heart you must trust the Lord and not your own judgment. Always let him lead you, and he will clear the road for you to follow.” (Proverbs 3: 5-6, Contemporary English Version)

We have an all-seeing, all-knowing guide. God has a perfect plan for us and knows every detail for carrying it out. We can trust Him fully in every moment to be faithful, right, and active on our behalf.

Let’s recognize this infinite presence and reliance. Let’s do this with our whole hearts, not only as an added thing, a slim prayer thrown into the mix of human pros and cons, judgments, opinions, fears. Let’s trust God because He is trustworthy. Our human sense of things gets tangled in limits and sense testimony. We jump to conclusions based on what matter is telling us. We feel either confined or rushed by time.

But God is boundless intelligence. He is free of those restrictive thoughts. He can see clear the way that He made, and we can let Him show that way to us. We don’t need to get ahead of God, of Life and Love, but to stay in step with Him. Put your hand firmly in God’s grasp. Release your worries. Trust Him with all your heart and He will reveal the clear road for you in each moment, with power and with Love.

“Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.” (Genesis 13: 8)

Abram spoke these healing words to his nephew, Lot. There had been some bad blood, it seemed, between these family members and it had set them and those who worked with them at odds. Abram saw through this devilish suggestion of divisiveness. He knew the truth.

They were brethren. And I think this thought went deeper than the sense of their human familial lineage. It was a recognition that this was not a proper way to live as fellow children of God. If they were to continue worshipping their one God, obedience to Him meant an awareness of who they were, who we all are in Truth: God’s children, and therefore family.

We can take this honest stand with God and refuse to allow strife, dissent, blame, vengeance, to keep us from being brothers and sisters. By our forgiveness and our love; by our yielding up our personal biases for the truth of our heritage, we are living in accord with God’s law and with healing results. For when we acknowledge the Truth and live it, we are being ourselves. This is individual freedom and it also brings blessings and peace to all.
