1. Cindy Says:

Wow! Thank you.

2. Anonymous Says:

So clear, so helpful, thank you.

3. Gabriele Says:

This talk is wonderful. I found some new/old ideas on gratitude and serving others. It gives me something to work with on an issue I have currently with my employment. Being grateful is a very powerful tool. It helped me in the past. And blessing those who are around me is something that I will give much more thought to. Especially those I work with. Gratitude for everything that I have already received, including having a job and the people I work for, as well as work with is vital for success. I guess I have left that off in the past. To start right here and now, I am ever so grateful for our lecturers, and the entire CS movement. Thank you again for this wonderful talk.

4. Sarah Says:

Thanks for this. I love the money analogy Marta used - no matter what the appearance there is inherant value in the money whether scrunched up or crisp and clean. I’ll remember that when my mind tries to make judgements on people. Thanks!

5. Margaret Says:

Thank you for such a clear view of God’s allness, which includes his manifestation man. His oneness, which you brought out so clearly. And thank you for the practical rules to live by; practical rules to help us on the journey.

6. Rose Says:

What a loving and sincere lecture. I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you for sharing your personal experiences in how you found a tangible connection with God that heals. Many thanks.

7. Chris Says:

Thank you so much for the inspiration. This is the second time I have watched this lecture in two days. I really like the concrete examples given.

8. Susan Says:

That was a great lecture especially if you are new to christian science like me, very helpful explanations and examples. Thanks.

9. KJG Says:

This was very clear and helpful to me. Thanks for providing it. I hope to share it with others.

10. Chris of Canton Says:

Marta
Thank you so much for the enthusiasm that you bring the the message of Christian Science. Your lecture is so full of practical experience and the transformation to metaphysics. I listen to it again and again.

11. Marianne Says:

Thank you ever so much for your inspiring statement: Keep your focus in the right place–on God! I know this will help me tremendously in my healing work.

Thank you again!

12. Being awakened! Says:

Thank you, Marta Greenwood, for your loving and enthusiastic lecture filled with holy and precious directives straight from the Bible, underscored and enlarged upon by Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. My gratitude overflows for the discovery of the practical and loving laws of God which Christ Jesus said he came to fulfill, not to destroy. Blessings, gratitude and joy loved and put into practice open the floodgates of heaven, here, for all. Peace on earth, good will to men is possible with God.

13. Marta Greenwood Says:

I love what you all wrote. Thank you for coming back and sharing your feed back. The most vital part of Christian Science is its practical Christianity. It is the Science of Christ- we can prove it for ourselves. It is simple- practical and applicable for all to use. Healing is the realization of our Oneness with God- living right from God. Keeping this focus, like you said Marianne, we can all be that transparency of infinite Love- that heals, whereever it is expressed.

14. Jessie Says:

Thank you, thank you, Miss Marta, for this beautiful healing message!!!
What a powerfully uplifting talk brimming with joy and humor! Thanks for showing us how practical this “spiritual toolbox” found in the Bible is for meeting our daily needs. A delightful catepillar story and God’s laws of abundance that you discovered in Science and Health (transforming your health, marriage, finances and life) were so instructive! That “transparency of infinite Love” shines throughout this lecture. :>)
Thank you for making clear that as we daily rejoice, give thanks and love…. “butterfly thinking” will make our lives soar with blessings!

15. Carrie Kay Says:

Wow, this lecture is FULL of energy, enthusiasm — Life! You will be so glad you tuned in to this no matter what walk of life you are treading. It is one of the BEST lectures on Christian Science LIVING that I have seen in 15 years. Thank you, Marta Greenwood, for having the courage of conviction to share this with us. What a magnanimous treat!

16. Stephanie Says:

Thank you so much for sharing this lecture. Thank you Marta for showing forth your expression of your love for God and for expressing your joy. Your lecture is very inspiring.

17. Elena Says:

Thank you, thank you, this lecture overflowed with Love! I am so glad I can come back to this site and listen to it again, Thank you, thank you! You explained it so well . . .

18. Miki of New Zealand Says:

Thank you for the fresh hope, enthusiasm, and JOY that your lecture lovingly brought out, Marta! It is wonderful being able to listen again and again to the ideas of Life, Truth and Love which always uplift and sustain practically. I am very grateful for this Science that knows no distance or time! Sincere thanks to you and the production team for all your loving work.

19. Marta Greenwood Says:

Thank you Miki from New Zealand for writing and all of you with your insights. So exciting to know you were able to hear it all the way in New Zealand. We are such a small global village in this new age of technology. It would be great to know what part of the world you all are from who are tuning into these lectures. How far in the world are these lectures being seen???? How about adding your global location and we can hold hands all around the world with these lectures?

20. Soo in Beijing Says:

This lecture very good it helped with my healing and inspired me. Thank you Marta.

21. karunabella of Redondo Beach Says:

Wow, thank you Marta. After two very trying days on a complex project, you absolutely transported me! I feel like a butterfly again and so many simple ideas and examples. An inspiration to watch and one I want to watch again.
Many thanks!!

22. Mindy from San Diego Says:

Thank you so much for this lecture. I was very discouraged and confused when I started watching, and now I’m excited to get going again. All of my questions and problems have faded from thought, replaced by my new goal of focusing on God, Spirit. What a wonderful lecture!!!!

23. Suzanne - Nevada Says:

Thank you for placing this lecture on the web..I have so enjoyed these lectures and continue to direct friends, neighbors and relatives to this site to introduce them to these ideas..Marta’s understanding comes across so beautifully along with her joyful, loving and bouyant expression has uplifted my thought of myself as well as of my neighbor..I love how #21 puts it ” I feel like a butterfly again”..I love this venue because I can listen and relisten..it’s always fresh and inspiring. What a blessing for all humanity!

24. Nikki from Australia Says:

Thank you very much, Marta, and the Publishing Society for this wonderful video lecture resource. I just watched it with my husband, who is a self-described agnostic, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. (He said he liked ‘the stories’ (testimonies of healing) best.) Marta - your joy, humility, sense of humour and unself-consciousness are a beautiful example to us all. I am a lifelong Christian Scientist who has heard quite a few lectures, and this is my favourite. I found it fresh, inspiring and riveting! (We had to stop watching it at a certain point to attend to domestic duties, and my husband said he was dying to find out what happened next (in the story of Marta’s marriage)!) My thanks again.

25. Marilyn in Mallorca Spain Says:

Thank you very much, Marta, for this inspiring lecture. I am a lifelong Christian Scientist, and yet, I feel I am just beginning to learn how my real purpose is to demonstrate this Science. Your joy and love shines through your every word. This is the best lecture I have ever heard, and I will listen to it again to remind myself “to pray without ceasing”. Thanks to the CSPS for this wonderful sharing of another facet of CS.

26. Gab Says:

Thank you so much Martha, I had and similar experience in my life where my parents where expecting me to be a girl, unfortunately (for them) I was a boy,so all my life I felt that I was rejected some how. Thanks to the Christian Science teachings and Mary Baker Eddy’s Science and Health, I little by little was healed from this thought that I was not worth it, and didn’t have a place in the world. I now feel that I am worth it and that God loves me. Thank you for such inspiring lecture!

27. Marjorie V.,Hamilton,Ont.CA Says:

I just loved this lecture! The joy and humour expressed is so evident! Thanks so very much for letting your light shine so brightly, Marta! This is just the message we need in these times of economic stress. I love that I can go back and listen over and over again to really ‘get’ the message!

28. blandine Merran Says:

Thank you for this amazing message, so full of images of caterpillars and butterflies. It’s a nature’s lecture too. I am desparatly need to know how much I am loved. So thank you so much for such joy and gratitude, it can only bring blessings to all of us. I fill so peacefull and joyous and light. And I can feel being God’s reflection.

Merci merci

29. Diane in VA Says:

Dear Marta,

I was feeling very depressed and friendless when someone told me to go to this website and listen to a lecture. I do not know you and have never heard you lecture. Tuning in tonite made a significant impression on me and I don’t feel depressed anymore. I feel like I’ve been listening to a friend. I even appreciate the audiences responses. I love the examples you illustrated, how you healed things. I took lots of notes. I loved the humorous way you presented this material. I am going to try these ideas now and I will let you know the results. I feel new again!

Much love, Diane

30. Chriss in St. Louis, Missouri Says:

Dear Marta,
Thank you so much for your wonderful lecture! The caterpillar-butterfly analogy is perfect… Your entire talk is uplifting, inspiring and provides such a clear illustration of how to keep thought focused on God, who we really are and where we really live. (I agree with the earlier commenter, Carrie Kay, your lecture describes Christian Science LIVING.) What wonderful healings and transformations we can expect to see in every human experience and/or condition, when we keep our focus on the spiritual facts of our Being. Wonderful lecture Marta and your dear expressions of joy, humor and love shine on all of us. I so appreciated the story of your healing and your parents’ healings. Two years ago, I came to Christian Science after a long medical career, and a long personal journey through the “alternative healing methods de jour”, but found complete and permanent healing when I turned to Christian Science. Thank you so very much Marta… and thank you to all who make these helpful, inspiring Christian Science lectures available to the world on the Internet.
Much love,
Chriss

31. West coast- North America Says:

I listened to this lecture and hmmmm… it had a message for me. For years I had nurtured a grdudge and built justified resentment in my life. I would visit this place many times a day and I just could not let it go. I argued with myself why I was justified in feeling so agry and mad and what right I had to make sure I keep it. I was afraid if I let it go I would become a victim again. Then I heard this lecture again and I saw I was the victim. I had terrible problems with lack and debts and other my health. I decided I will have a go at changing my habits of thinking and be a butterfly living in divine consciousness and asked Christ to transform me. It happened. I was washed clean and left the caterpiller to become free and focus new. Now the debt cleared out and the warts dropped off and my health improved. I did what Marta talked aboout keeping focused on infinite Love and kept my gaze here only and Christ healed me. What made this lecture for me was it showed me how to use Christian Science to make it work for me- it is simple and practical and it WORKS. So grateful, it WORKS and heals and liberates. Thank you God for Christian Science that heals.

32. Marjorie V.,Hamilton,Ont.CA Says:

Hi again Marta! I was at your lecture “Healing Power of Gratitude and Dynamics of Joy” in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on Saturday Dec.5, 2009 and just loved it. I sat in the front row so there would be no distraction!
Today I listened to this lecture here on the internet (again) and appreciated it all over again and have now emailed it to my sister-in-law.
Keep up the good work!
The secret to good healing is stick with God like that sunflower and sun analogy in your Sat. lecture: from dawn to dusk–stay right with God/Good and let nothing else in my thinking. Every thought, every action must be lined up with God; we must rejoice and praise God no matter what seems to be happening humanly because God only knows perfection, the kingdom of heaven, absolute Goodness. This will heal and transform and bear good fruit in our lives. Well worth the efforts!

33. Uta, Switzerland Says:

Thank you for this inspiring lecture, Marta:
to know that by focussing on GOD in every moment we are constantly uplifted and showered with His abundant blessings is so empowering and encouraging. This GOD-connection is infinite supply and source of all good for everyone, everywhere, hear and now. The thought fills my heart with gratitude and joy!
Thank you so much again.

34. Stephanie Says:

Thank you Marta - I am so grateful for your understanding and ability to make it so clear to me. I heard you speak in Modesto, California a few month ago and remembered your words - “We are not working our way up to God, but out from God”. Here again you have given me so much food for thought. I understand the importance of turning to God, listening, accepting his blessings and obeying. Thank you for your inspiration.

35. Lidya Sanchez Says:

I really enjoy the lecture, I like the examples, very clear to focus on divine Mind and do not allow the material way of thinking anymore. Thanks a lot Martha. I live in Tijuana Mexico and it is a great and priceless gift to have this lecture in internet, I give thanks to God’s guidance to all the persons that made this possible. Thanks a lot to God’s Law of Abundance.
