1/25: Nothing outside of God

1/25: Nothing outside of God

  1. Loving Truth expressed to us with such uplifting tones, and with deep - hearted and wise innocence!...
    Thanks to you, Lorenzo!

  2. Thank you. It's so comforting right now to know that my family and I all dwell and have our being in God, good, and there is Nothing Outside of God .

  3. Muchisimas gracias, Lorenzo! This lift is perfect to share with a friend that experienced a less-than-happy event a couple of days ago. I have forwarded it because of your reminding us that we are not defenseless, nor abandoned to our own devices, in the face of the abuses of the carnal mind. Thank you so much!

  4. Gracias, Lorenzo!

  5. Nothing outside of God. What a great way to face every day! A huge thank embrace to you, Lorenzo. That remark makes us all feel at home!

    En español

    Nada fuera de Dios. ¡Qué estupenda manera de enfrentar cada día! Un enorme abrazo de gracias para ti, Lorenzo. ¡Ese comentario nos hace sentir a todos en casa!

  6. Thank you Lorenzo, for reminding me about my oneness with God. There is absolutely nothing outside of God. What a beautiful message.

  7. Gracias Sr. Lorenzo!!!
    En estos días descubro que la Alegría es fundamental en nuestra Vida, y además me dió más gozo aún comprender que nuestra Alma vive en Alegría,
    es en realidad nuestro estado real y eterno, o sea, somos Alegría!!!
    Pensemos sobre la Totalidad de Dios por unos minutos. Escuchemos algunas de las declaraciones que Dios mismo hace, según se encuentran en el libro de Isaías: "YO SOY JEHOVA, Y NINGUNO MAS HAY; NO HAY DIOS FUERA DE MI". "YO SOY EL PRIMERO, Y YO SOY EL POSTRERO, Y FUERA DE MI NO HAY DIOS".
    Lo único que hay es la Mente divina! Es fantástico que no importa cuál sea el error, entendemos que es completamente inexistente, enteramente imposible, por la siempre presencia de la TOTALIDAD DE DIOS.
    Es más, si avanzamos en la comprensión de esta Verdad absoluta descubrimos que en Dios no hay error, todo es Vida, Bien, Verdad y Amor!!!
    Sólo tenemos que estar despiertos a no sugestionarnos con ninguna mentira.
    Cuanto tenemos para agradecer!
    Gracias y bendiciones a todos!

  8. Thankyou - so good to start the day with the real (spiritual) facts - Hymn 267 "Our God is All-in-all" by Emily Seal from the Christian Science Hymnal also came to thought.

  9. Thank you Lorenzo for that inspiring lift on completeness. "O perfect Life, in Thy completeness held,/ None can beyond Thy omnipresence stray;" (Christian Science Hymnal #421)

  10. Perfect and complete message in just a few words: There is nothing outside of God. THANK YOU!

  11. Muchas gracias, Lorenzo! Even in the last few days, I've found myself learning so much about what it means to know there is nothing outside of God, and just how much divine Love loves me - and everyone. It's truly the greatest blessing ever.

  12. Thank you for such a good Lift Lorenzo. I love the spiritual fact that God is responsible for our well-being; and the understanding of our inseparability from God is very reassuring, because this tells me that the ability to be separated from God does not exist. Any feeling of separation is just that - a feeling, or a belief. It is not God's reality, or ours.

  13. Lorenzo, Thank you, for this perfect Lift to our day,without fear,but just full and overflowing with love and goodness. In Hymn 66 of The Christian Science Hymnal we read"----in Thy completeness held, None can beyond Thy omnipresence stray; Safe in Thy Love,we live and sing alway Alleluia!Allelluia!"

  14. It's so easy to see that God is All when all is well, but when doubt beclouds your thought, then is when you have to work at remaining elevated.
    Just like the mighty eagle, keep the eye on the goal, swoop down, take what you need for nourishment and go back as high as you can -and stay there for as long as you can -to swoop back again for your nourishment as needed. Whatever you do, never, under no circumstance let fear nor doubt in your consciousness!! Your Father-Mother God will sustain you if you let Love in.
    ESPAÑOL
    Es tan fácil ver que Dios es TODO cuando todo anda bien, pero cuando la duda nubla tu pensamiento, entonces es cuando tienes que trabajar para mantenerte elevado.
    Al igual que el águila poderosa, mantén el ojo en la meta, desciende rápidamente, toma lo que necesites para alimentarte y vuelve a elevarte lo más alto que puedas –y permanece allí todo el tiempo que puedas -para luego volver a buscar tu nutrimiento de nuevo según sea necesario.
    ¡Hagas lo que hagas, nunca, bajo ninguna circunstancia permitas que el temor ni la duda entre en tu conciencia! Tu Padre-Madre Dios te sostendrá si dejas entrar al Amor.

  15. Thank you!

  16. Perfection in words and thoughts ! What a gift, help, support ! Thank you so very much for this renewed revelation.

  17. Thanks Lorenzo, I need that reminder. Now you have set my day in the right direction and thought....Thank you!...John

  18. This is it; God is All and there is none else!

  19. There is nothing outside of God; instead of feeling we are being robbed we are actually blessed as there is nothing worth more than the all encompassing Love which satisfys and supplys all our needs. All we have to do is keep our mind on the target and God will always play his/her part, in all ways no matter what the circumstance appears to be.
    Thanks Lorenzo a very powerful 2min lift !

  20. Excellent Lorenzo, thank you! Error would come into our consciousness and attempt to separate us from the purity and power of His presence. We cannot allow this to happen. And when we are successful in eliminating this interference, we experience the power of God's presence in our lives. Then, we can "act as possessing all power from Him in whom we have our being." as MBE has said in Science and Health. What a wonderful insight for today and always! Jesus demonstrated this power because of the purity of his birth, and subsequent daily practise of obedience to God's commands---even to submission in his crucifixion---the ultimate demonstration of life over death.

  21. Lovely!
    Loved by Love!
    More than enough to wonder about and accept today!

  22. An excellent uplift, Lorenzo. Thank you! The allness of God precludes the presence of evil of any sort. This is so nice to know. All the love of Love, Lorrie

  23. What perfect, embracing truths to start the day. Thank you for your loving message today!

  24. Thanks for the lift. It makes me remember that God wants to be known!

    It was an absolute pleasure to be able to introduce you as our lecturer a couple months ago.

  25. Thank you, what a wonderful way to start our day knowing we are at one with God and that each and everyone of us are in God's care. We are God protected and God directed.

  26. thanks, thinking

  27. Perfect! That is just the message I needed to hear before I go out Lorenzo and the conviction in your voice makes it palpable. There is only one Mind so get with it!
    Jackie

  28. Thanks for the Christian Science treatment, Lorenzo.

  29. Thank you Lorenzo..I am sharing this lift with my family in Haiti this morning..
    What a beautiful reminder that we truly dwell in the consciousness of God, good, Love, where ever we are. That foundation is the Truth on which we build our day, our life! Thanks 20 & 24

  30. Thanks Lorenzo. I too loved the certainty in your voice as you expressed these truths. It made me think, "Yes, of course!" as I followed your reasoning. Have a great day.

  31. Wow! Thank you Lorenzo for giving my spirits a much needed lift.

  32. Such an uplifting reminder of God's constant care and everlasting love for each one of us. We need never feel lost nor fearful, only complete and joyful. Thank you so much.

  33. Thank you for myself and everyone else who needed this encouragement for today and always..

  34. Thank you, Lorenzo...what a wonderful message to start this wonderful day.

  35. Thank you Lorenzo a great Lift for every day.

  36. Thank you Lorenzo. You have presented the basic facts and I do use those so often.....declaring that I live and move and have my being in God, Love. God is my Life and my Life is everlasting. I declare that during every day. I love one of the above comments as well: "We are God directed and God protected". We certainly are, as Mary Baker Eddy writes, "clothed in the panoply of Love".

  37. Wow, Lorenzo, so clear and true that message is! Yes, I woke up early this a.m. just praying to Love myself the way God loves me.....to release all the old programming from the the past that I may have picked up along the way that says I am not loveable or worthy or deserving to have a good and happy and fulfilling Life! My constant Prayer is "Let me feel Your Love so I can Love myself and others with that Love!" I have learned to Feel, Deal and Heal, along with knowing the Absolute Statements of Christian Science. My God is a feeling God who wants me to release the old stuck pockets of pain and sadness so He/She can fill them with His/Her Love!

  38. "There is nothing outside of God"! Wow! What a truth to remember - & use. I can see I'll be rolling this out many times every day. Thanks so much Lorenzo from a fellow Floridian.

  39. Thanks for the reminder of our oneness with God.

  40. I just love these minute messages. God with us on the run. Thanks for the reality check, Lorenzo.

  41. Thank you, Lorenzo, for the simple but powerful statement of Truth. You can't imagine how much it has lifted me!
    This is my favorite music. Who are the musicians & do they have a CD?

    MODERATOR'S NOTE:
    All the music for this program – excluding the first few weeks of stock tunes – was composed especially for this program. Nathan Frederick and his friends continue to compose and record original music for your Daily Lift in The Mother Church recording studios in Boston, MA. Many of these musicians are local musicians who have CDs for purchase. Check out our FAQ section for a complete list. <a href="http://christianscience.com/lectures/daily-lift/faq/" rel="nofollow">http://christianscience.com/lectures/daily-lift/faq/</a>

  42. Perfect, convincing, strong message to bolster our own confidence in Oneness, and to broadly share with others. It is Christ's message to all of us, and Christian Science gives us the tools to practice that message in our individual lives. Thank you for this simple, pure message of truth!

  43. Beautiful Lift! Thank you Lorenzo!

  44. Thank you for reminding me "There is nothing outside of God". When I was a very young child in a Christian Science Sunday school class. A wise teacher explained to our class our connection with God by drawing a circle and placing God with all his synonyms inside the circle then she put us in the circle. She then explained that nothing was outside of God and that we were always in that circle with God. We are one with God.

  45. Thank you Lorenzo.
    This is like a good breakfast to start the day.
    Pure spiritual food to sustain us all.
    And thanks to the Daily Lift team.

  46. Thank you. Wonderful. Wonderful comfort of Truth and Love!
    Played multiple times already.

  47. Wow! That was powerful. Thank you.

  48. Thank you!

  49. Thank you Lorenzo! So well said. I've listened to it several times and now am singing Hymn 139...I walk with Love. Thank you for this day's uplifting thought.

  50. I can only echo the others and thank everyone. I really loved this Lift and I could feel the love and gratitude from all the 40 comments here so far. #37, A Christian Scientist, I pray that way, too, especially in the heat of a stressful situation. I have also found it helps my day as a whole, if during morning prayers I start with "Thank you, God, for making me able to feel Your Love right now and in every moment so I can Love myself and others with that Love!” Much love to all! Tracy

  51. Thank you so much, Lorenzo!
    Since there can be nothing outside of God, then we can't be separated from Him/Her for even one moment.

  52. We are one and there is nothing outside of God. Thank you Lorenzo.

  53. One of the most powerful lifts yet! Thank you.

  54. Beautiful, Thank you Father for this expression in my experience.

  55. "One with God and His Christ"-- oh let me really feel and live this truth today and every day! "In heavenly Love abiding, no change my heart shall fear, and safe is such confiding for nothing changes here." Hymn #148. Thank you so much for reminding us so authoritatively, Lorenzo.

  56. Lorenzo: Thanks so much! Your "lift" is "right on the money"..."hit the mark " for me this morning!....

  57. Thank you, Lorenzo, for putting into loving words a great fact. For a long time I had pinned a sheet of paper on the wall of my room reminding me : "There is no spot where God is not!" Your Lift lovingly embraces all erring thoughts.

  58. Lovely lift and lovely music today. Thank you!

  59. Thank you for such strong and loving affirmation of the ever presence of God, good. A family member was placed under hospice care today, and this week's lesson and your "lift" bring more comfort than you know. Every aspect of our experience is covered and I will remain in His "gentle presence"....as will all involved, because there is nothing outside of God!

  60. Perfect, Lorenzo. Just God and his Christ, so simple and so powerful.

  61. Filled with gratitude for this Lift Lorenzo, and all who share......and for you folks who put this gift on line. I'm reminded of lines from hymn 134, "...embosomed deep in Thy dear love.........held in thy law....I/we stand..." Thanks #37 and 50 for your comments on releasing the old and making way for the new as answer to our call to feel the love of Love....." I feel Thy touch, eternal Love, and all is well again..." Hymn 298 offers these questions for us, "Saw ye my savior? heard ye the glad sound? felt he the power of the word...?" And, the answer, 'Twas the Truth that made us free and was found by you and me......" a hearty thanks to everyone.

  62. That was so powerful! Thank you...

  63. thank you

  64. As soon as I woke this morning I read the Christian Science Bible Lesson for this week, which is "Love." It tells us, like this lift, in stories and psalms from the Bible and in statements from Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy, that God is Love and that we are loved by Love. It tells us, like this lift, that God has always loved and makes us ready to meet every worldly situation at any time and in every place with confidence. It tells us that we can experience the completeness, fearlessness and joy that Lorenzo speaks of with complete assurance and that our experience of love includes everyone, even though the world would make us think I or we or they are acting or suffering outside of God. In a Psalm it says of God "If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there; if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there." So we can't even put ourselves outside of God. As I read and listen and write this morning, I don't strive with the concepts of God including us all, of nothing outside of God, of being blessed and able to bless because these things are simply and completely true about me, and you and everyone.

  65. After hearing the lift and reading all the wonderful comments, how can we have a day filled with anything other than God's love? "In heavenly love abiding, No change my heart shall fear, And safe in such confiding for nothing changes here." (Christian Science hymnal, pg 148).

  66. Muchas gracias Lorenzo, perfecto lift para hoydia. There is God and nothing else has power nor presence!!

  67. A simple truth that can not be reversed.

  68. Muchas gracias, Lorenzo.

  69. Wow, beautifully said!
    Thank you so very much, Lorenzo!

  70. Thank you all. I am so blessed. My heart overflows with gratitude. What a gift to the world.

  71. Thank you, Lorenzo, your comments are always so clear and helpful!

  72. Thanks much for this Lift -- It was sooo good to hear again about God's love.

  73. L-ROD...BRILLIANT &amp; POWERFUL! ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTE...IT BROUGHT ME BACK TO THE BASICS...GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR MESSAGE.

  74. Very very helpful.Thank you .Thank you

  75. I have been reading the series of books called we knew Mary Baker Eddy . So many times the ones that spent time in her home mentioned the feeling of being in the midst of God ( the synonyms) when they were with Mrs. Eddy and the enviorment of her home. Thank you for your absoutely beautiful lift today. No spot where God is not.

  76. Thanks for this great Lift, it sure warms our hearts with Love,

  77. Lorenzo, thanks so much for the simple but profound message.

  78. I love how you started us out with our oneness with God and brought us right back to our oneness with God with nothing outside of it. The simplicity and clarity of the message is greatly appreciated.

  79. Lorenzo, I took you to work today and plugged in while working on a graphics project. We refer to this as "having our ears on" ... when someone is working on a computer project in our open office/warehouse environment and wears earphones for concentration. OK, a lift is a little short for this purpose and I had to "restart" it several...many times. But what a wonderful day with a completed project in record efficiency!

    Everyone should know that turning away from the human buzz and listening to such truths dissolves time.

    Also, 25 or 30 "Hey, Hey" s were a big part of today's momentum!

    Thank you gentlemen.

  80. Thank you Lorenzo. This Lift is a good one to share with others,because you listed the erroneous concepts of God, that so many have, yet don't stop to realize that what they hold in the back of their minds lies along the lines of these false concepts. It's a wake-up call also to those familiar with Christian Science, for we can slide, ever so slightly, into a bit of some false reasoning about our Father, and a bit is way too much, when it comes to everyday experiences. When we can't seem to get that healing we expect, checking your list may uncover just what we need to finish off our work. You didn't leave us with the errors, either, but filled in beautifully what right concepts do to our lives. Even though I know the truths about God from my Christian Science study and years of wonderful healings, I find times when I seem to feel separated or far from divine Love, so we must never get careless in keeping right thoughts and consciously staying close to Abba, Father. Feeling ill last night, I was grateful to have this to work with. Today's comments have sent out an extra abundant, and lovely chorus of healing songs from our hymnal. Back to back they make a strong treatment also. Thank you, everyone.

  81. In the heaven and hell of Earth there is the Christ and the Anti-Christ. When we follow God and His dear children we follow His Christ. When we follow the Anti-Christ we follow hate and the lust for hate, which isn't the Christ Truth. It is too bad that some of us spend so much time away from not loving God, good and spend time worrying about this, that or the other thing, which could cause fear from lack, crime, or other things that cause us anger and self pity. We need to adjust this thinking and see the light of truth that is understanding our relationships and what is really going on in the world around us. When we think about creating better memories about the present and future we help ourselves grow into something better in the long run. There isn't a lust for power or principality. There is only Truth that is love for all mankind. There is nothing outside of God, good for each and every one of us including the Anti-Christ someday and progressing along the way.

  82. How wonderful to know that there is no lack because there is only one God. So comforting to know that the looms of crime hidden in mortal thought can not touch us as Mary Baker Eddy says in Science and Health on page 102: 18-19 because there is nothing outside of God! We also know because of this that "God will bring to light the hidden things of darkness" as it states so clearly in I Corinthians. I am so grateful for your daily lift and for Christian Science.

  83. I join the chorus of #50 Tracy C-K and #61 evelyn in thanking #37 A Christian Scientist for the sweet prayer, as well as the neat alliteration: Feel Deal Heal.
    The simple heart behind your message touched me so.

    Lorenzo, #1 kim pinpoints the lovely qualities you bring to the Daily Lift, especially that of "wise innocence"--or one could say "innocent wisdom." :-)

  84. Lorenzo, you helped me remember ... the simplest, best ideas are really easy to understand! Thank you.

  85. I have experienced the truth of what you say sooooo many times -- thank you for reminding me of them!

  86. THANKYOU!

    I THINK I must have replayed your message at least six times.

    I will record it on my I Phone.

    Again THANK YOU Lorenzo Rodriguez .

  87. What a beautiful, comforting, helpful lift! Thank you so much!

  88. Gracias Lorenzo por tu mensaje tan afirmativo.Nada fuera del abrazo incondicional de Dios, Amor. Gracias a todos por compartir!!!

  89. C'EST Reconfortable pour moi et toutesma famille de se remettre chaque jour en Dieu et de n'ai plus faire rien en dehors de lui ,nous sommes en lui nous sommes image de Dieu.

  90. Just what I needed to hear, thank you so much.

  91. thank you Lorenzo very helfull also thank ypu 44#Betty I remember hearing this way of teaching children about not being seperated from God
    I used this idea when venturing out side in the snow for the first time after heavy snow , Ifelt realy safe Kathy Love to you all

  92. Thank you very much Lorenzo for your message.'We are one with Good' or 'Nothing out of God' That's great's because we have evything we need.Thanks again.

  93. Thank you for this! What a gift, to get to consider "being the loved of Love" from this angle. As you say, if I really knew I was the loved of Love, what could I fear? This is not a matter of human opinion, or of convincing myself one way or the other. This is loving God, and allowing only Love to define or inform my consciousness.

    So grateful these Daily Lifts stay online well after the day of posting. Thank you Lorenzo and thank you Daily Lift team!

  94. Thank you so very much.

  95. 95,FROM BOGOTA COLOMBIA SOUTH AMERICA.
    gRACIAS LORENZO EN HACERN OS COMPRENDER QUE NADA FUERA DE DIOS EXISTE NI TIENE PRESENCIA, EN BOGOTA TE RECORDAMOS MUCHO POR TU ULTIMA VISITA CON TU CONFERENCIA, ESC UCHA CONFIA Y SIGUE TU CAMINO I uNDERSTAND THAT THIS PATH IS Christ Jesus.,taking the cross and following him.

  96. So goood....love the idea of fearlessness and that being part of God. Courage is a good rung on the ladder as we climb out of believing what the world claims, but fearlessness has no concept of anything going on but good.

    So grateful to you!

  97. Yep, that hits the spot. Thank you Lorenzo for that strong reminder we are never alone. He keeps me happy!
