Comments:

1. Pamb Says:

That was beautiful Chet. Thank you for a wonderful way to start
the day.

2. Liz Says:

Love and thanks to you for sharing this about the spontaneity of Love and the joy in loving & giving as we express it from God.

3. Kate in Taiwan Says:

Very helpful and full of Love!

4. di-vanc Says:

A very healing reminder! There was a “lil assignment” in there too! I am going to send out pure little Love thoughts/notes that come from a genuine love for God’s children as He sees them and knows them. In “looking out from Him”, holding His view, the correct view, I know each heart will be blessed. Mine too!! TY TY TY

5. Anne d’Ambra from France Says:

Bonjour Chet

Thank you so much for this lovely daily lift! To be grateful, thankful is Love.
The idea of spontaneity is wonderful because it’s “the eternal now”,it’s being, reflecting like a child.

Merci beaucoup

Anne

6. Kath Says:

It’s 11:30 pm west coast time and I Just happened to open my e-mail and saw that the daily lift was already on line! What a lovely message to love as Christ Jesus taught. At times love comes so easily and at other times nurturing unconditional love takes a little more effort, but certainly has its’ rewards. Sometimes it even requires that we love ourselves just a little more and not be so critical of ourselves. I have heard that God is Love itself. I like that thought. We are an expression of Him/Her so how can we do anything but just Love! thanks chet.

7. Peggy Burke Says:

Beautiful…I love this uplift and how good it does make us feel to write notes and share love spontaneously. Thanks!!

8. Elena desde California (San Diego) Says:

Dear Chet, thank you for your lift, you just prompted me to write to a dear friend and express that spontaneous love that heals . . .
A spontaneous spread of love reminds me of a burst of laughter in the middle a serious dilemma, it brakes the mesmerism and allows you to snap out of it and reason again. Sorry, I don’t know if I am making myself clear (In either language).
Is that the voice of your child doing the announcement, it’s such a pleasure to listen to that sweet little voice. Oh how I miss having a child around the house (not enough to want to have another one, though, no siree!)

Querido Chet, gracias por tu elevación, me empujáste a escribirle a un querido amigo y espresarle ese amor que sana . . .
Un desparramo de amor espontáneo me recuerda a una explosión de carcajada en medio de un serio dilema, rompe el mesmerismo y te permite escapar de ello y volver a razonar, lo siento si no me expreso bien claro (en ningún idioma).
¿Es esa la voz de tu ni?a anunciando? Es un placer tan grande oir esa vocesita dulce. ¡Oh cómo extra?o tener una critatura en la casa (aunque no tanto como para querer tener otra, no se?or!)

9. Olivia Says:

What’s there NOT to smile about after hearing this lift? We’ve got a raft of spontaneity floating into our lives in one 2-minute audio: new music for the week, a new “Awright!” intro from Nathan, fresh ideas from Chet for getting off the morose, woe-is-me, self-centered track of thinking (by EXPRESSING LOVE TO ALL in all sorts of big and tiny ways), and, to top it off, the cheery voice of our little friend at the end who radiates freshness and joy and conviction with every syllable.

Thanks to divine Love’s daisy-fresh self-expressions — Chet & gang — I have an un-wipe-away-able grin on my face!

10. Chloë, Australia Says:

What an uplifting thought: our role in life is to be the expression of divine Love, letting Love move through us in fresh and spontaneous ways. Thanks so much!

11. John Says:

Thank you for this so simple and profound message! Additionally, thank you for contributing to “Daily Lift”.

12. Sue Says:

Thank you, Chet. I liked your message for the way you presented it..so naturally. A good prompt for the day and for the new week.

13. Robert, Brunswick Maine Says:

Thanks Nathan and Chet for the melt.

14. carole Says:

I liked this, very much

15. Rosemary Deary Says:

Thanks Chet ! So many people today seem to be feeling the pressures
of one sort or another, and the thought of a spontaneously loving and
giving to others as a means of getting one’s thought away from self seems a really good idea. Only this morning I had a call for help from
someone who was feeling very anxious about an upcoming move and
the huge amount of stuff that needed to be cleared out, and your
message of the “Spontaneity of Love” which Mrs Eddy speaks of, was
just what was needed ! Thanks again.

16. Annepat, England Says:

What a wonderful thought to start the week with – letting love shine through our lives in everything we do, every contact we make – this truly is the real function of man! Many thanks, Chet!

17. Margaret, Sunshine Coast, Australia Says:

This ’spontaneity of Love’ (My 185: 16) is what Chet is all about. A young woman, Jessica Watson, from the Sunshine Coast is sailing solo around the world, as your own Abby is! But a big storm came up and I emailed some friends to pray for Jessica, and then I still wanted to know that Jessica would have someone with her at all times, so I contacted http://www.tmcyouth.com and Chet answered just 5minutes after my message was sent! Chet was skiing in New Hampshire, and took the call on his blackberry, and asked me to contact the Forum to commence a Prayer Alert for Jessica. It is just amazing tothink that at all times someone is praying for Jessica, and for the people of Haiti, and Indonesia, and a long list of other people and nations requiring prayerful support.
Bravo tmcyouth.com and bravo Chet, Ariana and Amy and all the young people who are ‘Spontaneity of Love’ in action 24/7.

18. Lisa,Quad Cities Says:

What a great thought to contemplate as we all prepare for another busy day. Thank you again for this real “lift”.

19. Margaret, Sunshine Coast, Australia Says:

‘Spontaneity of love’ is what happens when I click onto the Daily Lift and listen to Nathan ’s introduction, and his little side kick taking us out. And of course the lecturer and the Daily Lift! Thank you all so much. You are so appreciated by everyone!

20. Jackson from Brazil Says:

Thanks Chet for this spiritual gift! Carpe diem (seize the day) with spiritual love!

21. Sue from Rochester Says:

My first words this morning were, “Well, darlin’, it’s the week of love (Valentines week : ) and now you’ve proved it, Chet. Thanks, and love to all in this precious community.

22. Nncls in N.C. Says:

Wow — great message, Chet! And I LOVED that sweet little voice at the end! Thanks so much!

23. B.Sue Says:

These wonderful thoughts shared by Chet Manchester lifted me today to a bright begining for the week. They clear the thought and lead upward to God.

Thank you for the Daily Lift!
Love, BettySue

24. Malcolm Drummond, Henrietta NY Says:

Thank you Chet, well said, “Let God’s love just shine in our lives…”. In this weeks lesson, “Love for God and man is the true incentive in both healing and teaching.” (S&H p454:17)

25. tenney Says:

Glorious gratitude, Chet, Love certainly IS the liberator as Mary Baker Eddy tells us. No mater how adverse a situation seems to be, I always know that love melts it away. Entertaining only love there is no room for hate to become a reality in our consciousness. Hate ONLY has the reality or power one gives it.

26. Kaye in Houston Says:

Great way to live!

27. Kristen Says:

For those not familiar with Spirituality.com’s e-cards, the one titled: “Love at the helm,” is an excellent visual presentation as a companion to Chet’s little love notes.
Thanks, Chet for the example on how to let Love be the communicator.

28. JODI Says:

Chet just loved this daily lift..so fresh and refreshing. Good reminder for today and the week…Thank You.

29. Joan Wattam Says:

Thank you, Chet, for the natural and spontaneous (conversational) tone with which you spoke of the Spontaneity of Love, and for sharing the way in which you demonstrated this. With a heart filled with gratitude, surely Love is ever-present and Self-evident – and we don’t need to strive!

30. Joy from Southampton, NY Says:

Thanks, Chet! I just took out my note cards to send my love to friends. Thanks for the uplifting suggestion!

31. melanie in mcdonough Says:

Thanks Chet. And, it becomes easier and easier as we make this a daily practice. Wonderful thoughts!

32. Warren Says:

What a great reminder, Chet, that we live to give with Love and spontaneity! What a great lead-in to the week of Valentine’s Day and its lessons of Love divine.

33. Nina Says:

Thanks for the reminder that the easiest way to be happy (perhaps the only way–) is to love.

34. Tanja Says:

“Life is the spontaneity of Love.” That’s awesome! Thanks. Not to ‘cheapen’ the idea, but I would love to have that on a bumper sticker. Seriously! There are several different thought provoking phrases from MBE like that that I think would be great, simple -yet profound- ideas to share with the world – on a bumper sticker. …. something to consider…. )

35. James Says:

First of all, thanks, Chet, for the message and the spontaneous way you shared it. We know that we’re part of God’s harmonious family and experience that love on a moment by moment basis. It can “play out” in the way we greet people at a store, express our appreciation for what others have done, encourage people who are struggling, share our joy, etc. We can know that as God’s children, we live in His love (even when it seems otherwise!) and find simple ways to help others feel it, too. “For it is giving, that we receive.”

36. Nancy from Yellow Springs Says:

Your remarks reminded me of the “random acts of kindness” that someone started some time ago. You know….where you pay the toll for the car behind you on a toll way….that sort of thing.
Better yet are the specific acts (action) of Love. Thanks for the heads up!

37. Marie Says:

As we are called to grow spiritually in our every thought, it’s refreshing how simple your message but so very powerful !!!! Thanks I needed that.

38. Chet Says:

These daily lifts and the community gathering around them are a wonderful expression of the “spontaneity of Love!” The quote I mentioned in today’s lift can be found on p. 185 of Mary Baker Eddy’s “The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany.” It’s in reference to the building of a new church in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Reminds me of a note she once wrote to a student, saying that “our churches spring up spontaneously in the soil of healing.” Last week’s Bible Lesson offered lots of food for thought about how to cultivate the kind of genuine spirituality in which the seeds of Truth spring up and bear fruit in our lives. If you haven’t yet seen the inspired animated video about “The Sower and the Seed,” check out: http://tmcyouth.com/media/view/parable-of-the-sower-2

39. Helmut Preller, Germany Says:

Ever such a great joy to listen to Chet and his easy (For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light – as jesus said) but deep going thoughts. It reminds me: first listen – then act … so I will think to write some notes of love – great idea. Chet, you met me excat just where I am now … Thank You.

40. ann-eliz Says:

Gosh, who wouldn’t want to catch the spontaneity bug after hearing Chet so enthusiastically share his message. Thanks for the little reminder to do something big!

41. Renate Lohl Says:

Love’s doing it!

Was thinking about the factory of Spirit, as our churches are designed to be. This spontaneity of Love makes the work quick and efficient.

42. Stephen Pierce Says:

That’s a -turn-up!
Thank you for your thought!

43. Bev Newsham – Sandpoint, ID Says:

How wonderful to know that we are free to Love and Honor ourselves in whatever way we choose! God’s Love is unlimited and can be expressed in such a variety of ways. One thing I’ve learned is that until or unless I can really Love, Forgive and Honor myself and my unique ways of expressing, I can’t really appreciate or love anyone else. I can learn to love myself just as much as I love my neighbor!
Today, God, help me hold myself in high self-esteem. Help me know I am lovable and capable of giving and receiving love. I think I’ll send myself a Love Note today!
Happy Valentine’s Day!

44. Ginny Says:

Dear Chet: The “Spontaneity oif Lover” is similar to 15 as my children are
helping me move and so grateful that “Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need”.as written on our church wall

45. Mary H Says:

I woke up and became angry at my dog then at my husband, he went back to bed. My dog tried to make me happy but I didn’t acknowledge it. Then I came to the computer to get the Daily Lift that has helped and reading what others have written and listening to the Daily Lift again. Thank you all. Love does rule.

46. Faye’s gratitude!! Says:

Thank you Chet, Loving thoughts are always appreciated. Will try to let the love shine through today and always!!

47. Leah Says:

Beautiful thought! Love reigns supreme. Thank you!

48. Anne S., Nova Scotia Says:

Notes of Love — thoughts of Love, actions of Love — towards everyone. What a wonderful lesson for today! Thank you so much Chet and everyone else on the ‘lift’ team!

49. Becky Says:

As I listened to this wonderful message from Chet, I felt a stirring of Love in my heart as different people came to mind. Then I heard the sweet voice of that child, and it occurred to me: Why was I thinking that if I could hear God’s voice it would be a deep adult voice in my thought…Now I like to think of God’s voice as that sweet innocent voice of a child, and why not? Nothing more pure and innocent and loving than a child…and aren’t we all innocent children?

50. Cici from Los Angeles Says:

Thanks Chet for that great lift!!. “And Love is reflected in love.” How grand can that be? I love your idea of writing notes of love to people you knew. That is truly God’s expression of love. I love the Bible message also that we love God because He first loved us. And if that’s the case, we are spiritually driven to be spontaneous in loving our neighbor as well. “Love, Love alone is power” (Hymn 179). Have a Love-filled day everyone!!!

51. Carol Says:

I LOVED hearing the little cherub’s voice at the end of today’s Daily Lift!! It brought a huge smile to my face, and a huge feeling of love for all those who provide us with this loving gift every day.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

52. S.A Says:

Thank you! Perfect way to start the day.

53. Dagmar, Hamburg Says:

Wonderful message, thank you!
God’s love shines in our lives – so it is really warm and sunny in our lives and therefore no room for fear nor sadness!

54. Jan J – Grass Valley, CA Says:

Love truly is the answer today, and every day.

55. Kaye Says:

We just can’t say too often that we are loved, lovable, and loving as the reflection of God. Thank you, Chet!

56. Gail Smith Says:

Thank you! spontaneity of love rings a bell.when you send someone a note that is giving and sharing God’s love. It is so healing, and loving. It is God in action. It truly works!!!

57. Laurie Says:

Chet, thanks for the lift and also for the link to the parable about the sower and the seed. I really enjoyed that this morning. It all gives lots of seed for thought and a great way to begin another beautiful day.

58. Peg S, Irvine, CA Says:

AMEN to all of the above!
SPONTANIETY what a concept of LOVE!
And I too love the angel’s voice at the end of these inspiring Daily Lifts. Oceans of Thanks!

59. Melissa Says:

It’s become habit now to listen all the way through the Lift so I can get a little extra ray of sunshine in my day–such a sweet, joyful voice capping off these wonderful two-minute uplifts and sending us bouncing into God’s day!

60. Jim Dalrymple Says:

Thank you Chet! Your comments reminded me of another statement by Mrs. Eddy that says, “Thus may each member of this church rise above the oft-repeated inquiry, What am I? to the scientific response: I am able to impart truth, health, and happiness, and this is my rock of salvation and my reason for existing.” (The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany pg. 165:18). I too have found that praying or expressing love for others really lightens my load.

61. Chrissie Brown Says:

Thanks so much Chet!! I just love the quote from Mary Baker Eddy “Life is the spontaneity of Love.” This morning I was just thinking of 2 thank you notes to send to people in appreciation for what they shared with me and others. And you just mentioned doing that So much joy in giving and loving!! Chrissie

62. rrh Says:

What a great message; many thanks, Chet ! PS: We are celebrating a blessed event in our office this morning (Topeka, Kansas.). Our boss delivered a brand new bouncing baby boy last night (during the Super Bowl). Everyone is in a great mood on this otherwise normal Monday morning. So thanks again for this uplifting message which adds to everyone’s good mood this morning !

63. Audrey Says:

Love is the most effective healer of all! Right? Thanks.

64. Mom D Says:

When we shift thought off of our own problems and challenges, and instead acknowledge love and good towards others, it brings the light of Love on us as well and we see that same good expressed in our lives.

65. Patty Says:

Thank you. The first word that came to my mind was”freshness” when I thought about spontaneity. I started to make a list of similar word.s: freshness, newness, active. Then I said Love is fresh not stale, old . Love is new not old, , routine, Love is active, not passive, unmoving, complacent. That is how I started this morning and how I want to keep expanding my thought about Love’s spontaneous nature.

66. Phyllis Says:

Thank you. Love is everyday in all our ways…unconfined.

67. Paul Marthaler Says:

Instant response! Thanks again Chet for all your good work and thoughts. i always enjoyed so much your readings of the lesson sermon when those were available on CD and on spirituality.com—-kinda sorry we don’t have those any more! But Love is all around each of us every moment, and we can spontaneously draw on this Love and reflect it on our fellow man. This makes things so much easier, and our tasks so much more joyous each day.

68. Marilyn in Mallorca Spain Says:

Thanks, Chet, for this beautiful message. What a perfect start to the week! I love the quote from MBE “Life is the spontaneity of Love” Thank you, too, for the wonderful Lesson reading you do for e.Bible. I am continually saying thanks for all the expressions of good available via internet. Thanks to you for taking active part.

69. Robert Tillotson Says:

THANK YOU FOR THAT WONDERFUL THOUGHT THIS MORNING, CHET. IT WAS A GREAT WAY TO START THE DAY.

70. Roger Howe Says:

Thank you Chet. It is good to hear that it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to get healed through Christian Science. We struggle or seem to not yield to Divine Mind or the Christ and let mortal mind win more often than not. Roger Howe, Pateros, WA.

71. Amy in NYC Says:

What a great thing to do Chet. Thanks for sharing this inspired idea of really living Love.

72. Sally L. from San Diego Says:

I got a “big basket” of great ideas when tuning into the Daily Lift today! Wow, Chet, what blessings!
First, I was teary with joy at the love that all 4 voices expressed for the world that was waiting! The comments surely show that it was received 100 fold! I tuned in immediately to the web site to hear and see the wonderful video on the parable we had in last week’s Lesson. Yesterday, another teacher and i were taken with the idea of having a huge “Garden” on our SS wall that would depict it and this was a great help.
Then, I read the comments by Margaret #17 and the quick response of prayers from all over the world as Jessica Watson makes her way in safe waters. I will add mine for her, too. What a wonderful embrace of Love we can all make together!
Thanks Chet, I am so grateful that your comments and the quote, gave me the inspiration to continue being the reflection of Love that is natural and immediately answers the need with joyful spontaneity. There is sometimes a reticence to express the thoughts that come to me for fear of being thought too “out there”. I love the idea that we are all in the center of
ch(UR)ch. If that is so, then a sense of church can spring up every where we go bringing the soil of healing with us.

73. Peter in Tyler TX Says:

Thanks, Chet!

You are a shining example of that spontaneous light of Love – one that can never be extinguished!…I would like to thank all the CS community for their unflailing support of the Tyler branch church as it emerges from the ashes of its recent fire to its edifice, and works together to construct a better building, one whose cornerstone is the Truth, whose builder and maker is the Father of light, in whom is no variableness neither shadow of turning! Onward and upward we march, together!

74. Marilyn from Maine Says:

Thanks Chet. Recently I have had quiet thoughts about following this idea and was pleased to hear it articulated so beautifully today. I was reminded of Mrs. Eddy’s words: “We live in an age of Love’s divine adventure to be All-in-all” from the collection of her writings in the book, First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, page 158.

75. Barbara Says:

Thank you, Chet! This is a wonderful idea. I will put up a post-it to remind me to write at least one love note a day. Cheers!

76. Susan Carol Says:

Thanks so much, Chet! “Life is the spontaneity of Love” That is soooo powerful! It makes one’s shift to Love, not challenges. One time, when I was having trouble with missing someone in my life, I asked a friend, a fellow Christian Scientist, how she managed to reflect God so effortlessly, knowing she had been through similar trouble, and she said “I just Love more!” That has stayed with me. Love is the key. Thanks for reminding me!

77. Maureen from Spearfish Says:

Truly a wonder-full way to start this day. #20/Olivia already said exactly what was in my heart. Endless thanks to all who provide these Daily Lifts, including the huge Daily LIft family, across the globe, who share comments and support.

78. ROB NAGEL Says:

THANK YOU! WHETHER IT’S JESSICA IN A BOAT OR ANYONE IN THEIR OWN ‘BOAT’, THERE’S THE TENDENCY TO THINK WE’RE EACH ‘SAILING SOLO’. BUT THE SPIRITUAL FACT REMAINS…LOVE IS ALWAYS WITH EACH OF US AND WE ARE THEREFORE NEVER REALLY ALONE

79. Peggy A. Says:

I so appreciate the gentle loving tone of this message and the ease of delivery you express. Thanks so much.

80. Marion from Hobart, Australia Says:

Love surely is the universal language and we can never be separated from its source, Love.

81. CW of Dana Point Says:

Spontaneity of Love. That’s love in natural action isn’t it! Thank you, Chet!

82. Beryl Says:

Thank you so much for today’s”lift”. It seemed to me to be the answer to what I was praying about yesterday afternoon. I am very grateful for the message and for all the Daily Lifts. I appreciate the thoughts, prayers, and time that go into each one. The “lifts” are a wonderful outreach to all!

83. Janet Says:

Thank you simple as that

84. CDT Says:

Many thanks, Chet, for that Soul-filled message as well as for the link to the video on the Sower and Seed. I really like the idea “Lfe is the spontaniety of Love.” Sometimes I have to be alert to differentiate between that pure spiritual spontaniety and mere impulsiveness which springs from human will. Identifying oneself correctly as Love’s individual
reflection in whom He/She is well pleased eliminates a false sense of self-consciousness and those genuine, loving, joyful, ever-fresh and free thought-actions just naturally spring forth.
Love to all the Lift community.

85. SSV (a still small voice) Says:

Thank you Chet for the inspiration (and encouragement) to express Life and Love with spontaneity instead of waiting for it to be rehearsed or planned. It never hurts to be reminded that simple expressions are fun and easy to do. We never know who needs our spontaneous expression of love each day or how much it helps them. All the comments remind me that the Daily Lifts are just the initial splash that results in a tsunami or floodtides of Love. Like throwing a snowball that becomes an avalanche of Love. Thanks to all for sponsoring this avenue of communication.

I appreciated all the respondent’s comments and particularly enjoyed the following:

#34, Tanja’s idea about a “Life is the spontaneity of Love.” bumper sticker. That would certainly take some of the “Bumps” out of daily life wouldn’t it.

# 17, Margaret’s reminder on those sailing boats. Obviously they need a little “Lift” or buoyancy as they continue their journeys at sea, or perhaps on the “SEE” of Love.

#55, Kaye for reminding us we are LOVEABLE. Neat idea! I needed that.

#65 Patty on the idea of freshness which certainly complements spontaneity doesn’t it.

#72 Sally helped me with her “big basket” of great ideas and ch(UR)ch.

And #73 Pete, thanks for your info on the church fire. I’ll look into helping them financially as well keeping the entire community embraced in Love’s protective presence.

86. Stan says: Says:

great message thanks!!!

87. Maria Elvira – Brasil Says:

Oh Nate, Yes, I enjoyed a lot what I heard today, specially the sweet litlle voice at the end!
And Chet, thank you for your uplifting thought!
Your message filled my heart with great joy and love for others and myself.
Your voice sounds so spontaneous and loving that it really brought me closer to God and His big love!
I enjoyed a lot the small video you mention in your comment and for sure I´ll share with fellows here, for they don´t speak English. Great work!!!
Thank you very much!!!

88. carolyn Says:

I thank you very much for this wonderful uplifting thought which can only be a blessing to one and all…

89. J.S. in Ky Says:

Thank you, Chet, for a sweet & reasonable approach to loving, with even a suggestion of one way to send love forth. One positive result, will be appreciated by the financially troubled postal service, with all the little love notes you inspired! Thanks, #60, Jim Darymple for the reminder of “What am I?” Thanks for the update, #73, Peter in Tyler, TX. This is not just the beginning, but the continuation of the Church you’ve always and still have. I’m still praying to know the central truth of the “ar-SON-ist”, who can’t escape or burn his/her relationship with the Father. I am convinced this will be realized by the one or ones. Hymn 412 reminds us beautifully, of the promise in Isa. 61:3 of “beauty for ashes”, which I feel would apply to a “vanished” Church edifice, as well as the vanished years of Church services, and members. I’ve a suggestion of how we can express the spontaneity of love: So many have asked for a print form of the lift for those on dial-up or who have no computer. I’ve shared the lift already with a non-CS friend several times, and tonight, arranged to everyday call a woman in my Church that isn’t always able to get out, and hold the phone to my PC speakers, so she can hear it. Then I can read comments, or her daughter who doesn’t live with her, but has a computer, can print them for her. We live in different area codes, but with unlimited LD, this is no problem. I shared yours tonight, and several older ones, and she loved them. Like Sally L from San Diego, I had to read, with tears of joy, some of the past comments to her, knowing the love that went all around those times. She said the lifts are just what she needed! Haven’t I read that somewhere before??? Thanks to all involved with this at the BOL, and to everyone around the world, which these lifts have brought so close to my heart. Because of them, also, Jessica Watson isn’t really sailing “solo”. Many reading this day’s comments are with her. That was so loving of you, Chet, to also help get the Prayer Alert started.

90. Gail Smith Says:

Thank you, it is so true! the sponeity of love!

91. Cheryl Says:

Thank you so much. I put the spontaneity of love into practice yesterday and called and e-mailed responses quickly rather than procrastinating. It felt good and so right. Appreciate the message!

92. Linda Says:

This high number of responses just proves the power of LOVE. Thanks to all who make the Daily Lift so inspirational and thought-provoking each morning. I pray for those in the world who don’t yet know that God is Love itself. What if everyone knew that and acted on that idea???

93. Laura Huxford Says:

Thanks Chet (and the lovely birds in the background), thanks Lift team and to all the contributors. How wonderful to know of all the love and powerful thinking going on across the world.

94. jessica Says:

That was great.Thank you

95. Melissa Says:

I think the little bird tweeting in the background enjoyed the inspiration you shared as well!

96. Joycie Says:

Love warms the heart, gets us through the day & night, paves the way toward doing the right things due to right motives which leads to more spiritual surprises to come! I loved hearing that birdie in the background!
Love reaches to all of God’s sweet & innocent creatures on the ground & in the air!

97. Helen New Zealand Says:

Thank you for the Daily lift. Love is so important in our lives to love all mankind, to see the good in all men, because God loves us all. Nobody is separated from God’s love,we are his children. .

98. Charli Says:

Wonderful idea, thanks so much and thanks for the link to the story of the parable (in #37). That was delightful and perfect for Sunday School!

99. Jean B fr UK Says:

Loved message & 1 to 1 style of delivery. Sometimes when I’m rushing I don’t listen to Daily Lift right to the end. Really glad I did today to hear the voice of the future at the very end. So refreshing. The Daily Lift is just that. Thanks.
