10/23: Who are you?

10/23: Who are you?

  1. Thank you, Fujiko, for “Who are you? … identify yourself as … a child of God …” I love it! “The admission to one's self that man is God's own likeness sets man free to master the infinite idea” (Science and Health, page 90). I can’t imagine a greater freedom!

  2. Thank you Fujiko for this beautiful Lift delivered in such a comforting voice. One of my favorite statements on identity is found in our textbook Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, page 265,"This scientific sense of being, forsaking matter for Spirit, by no means suggests man's absorption into Deity and the loss of his identity, but confers upon man enlarged individuality, a wider sphere of thought and action, a more expansive love, a higher and more permanent peace." Our true identity, one that allows us to demonstrate perfect God and perfect man, is an outcome of our conscious unity with the one Mind.

  3. You're so cute! We always love your childlike, wondrous, profound ideas!

  4. Thank you Fujiko.
    Your loving thoughts bring me peace.
    Infinite light, our inspiration and guidance, is always shining
    for each one of us. I will continue to look up to a higher
    sense, so I can demonstrate more of that Love
    that Jesus taught us.

  5. Very wonderful thoughts.
    Thank you,
    Kate

  6. Dear Fujiko ,thank you really very much for your Lift, which makes me safe in God with every thing I do today, the more because I have to nurse topday..I am glad we learnt that we all express nothing but the qualities of our Father-Mother-God!

  7. Bless you Fujiko- just what is needed here where it is foggy ! Thank you and all the BOL.

  8. Thank you, Fujiko, for your so timely and clear message. I love your child of Light in which there is no darkness nor shade. Soo helpful to know where our home and where we dwell. Thankyou kindly..

  9. What a lovely, inspiring thought! As a child of God it sets me free to be the 'real me.'

  10. Thank you, Fujiko! Such a perfect message - no political party identification, either - and while identifying myself as a child of light, I can identify others that way, too. Great focus for my day. Thanks for the lift.

  11. So perfect, so healing wiping out all the darkness that we feel about ourselves sometimes! Your words shone into me and now shining out of me. Thank you Dear Fujiko! You never fail to inspire me!

  12. Thank you Fujiko. Great thought to start the day with :)

  13. Dear Fujiko

    Thank you for this Lift. There are many dimensions of the Lift that brought a sense of assurance and peace. Thanks also to the DL Team for your dedication.

    The thought of approaching the sun and the darkness disappearing is wonderful and really helps to squash fear. Just today I watched an episode of Star Trek, Voyager from Season 2 called "The Thaw" and it dealt with fear. I watch this episode repeatedly because there are some strong truths in the episode. One statement I love is where Captain Janeway confronts the being that represents fear and she tells it "You & I both know that fear only exists for one reason, to be conquered" .

    This reminded me today that fear, hurt, pain, anger, loss, physicality etc are not part of our true identity. Our identity is not shaped by events (past, present or future), it is already established as part of God's creating; our individuality therefore cannot be altered in any way by human events or fears.

    Personality and identity are two completely different things, at least in my books. I see personality as the human adoption of an identity, further conditioned by human practices, beliefs and oftentimes fear. Individuality is the reflection of Godliness; the true substance of our being. As you said, the closer we approach the brilliance of the sunlight (our individuality), the less darkness (or fear) we see (hold on to).

    Fear, like ethnicity, isn't part of our true individuality. Wonderful! Thanks!

  14. Thank you Dear Fujiko, your lift today was deeply moving for me. When I've been exasperated by vexations in the spirit of a loved one; the best thing I can come up with is; "I know who you are!" Your beautiful words, clarify where mine came from. Thank you again.

  15. Thank you so much, Fujiko. This morning, early, at Time4Thinkers.com,I read a blog from a young woman from Brazil who said she and her brother started their life in a trash can. She is amazingly beautiful and clearly untouched by the experience, but that was their so-called beginning. Our four children started in much the same way: not quite in the trash can, but certainly unwanted, cast out and labelled by the social stigma of the day. In fact there was such disapproval, that we had to pray about those concerns from family members. There have been rocks along the way at various times, but beauty, honesty and uprightness have prevailed, and they're bringing up their own children with the best of intentions and hopes for the future,
    Thank you Nate and the production team; the BoL and lecturers; and the Daily Lifters..

  16. Many thanks Fujiko for your inspiring lift of shining "beauty and individuality" as "God's children of light [Love]." "To earth's remotest border/ His mighty power is known;/ In beauty, grandeur, order,/ His handiwork is shown." (Christian Science Hymnal #329).

  17. How true. Leaving our story about ourselves or others story about us has value and revelation.
    And it does so as we turn to our Creator to understand His story about us. That is where out true reflection, our only reflection exists. Thank you for bringing this out.

    Tom S. In MI.

  18. Thank you Fujiko. Your lift today gave me a clearer understanding about identity :)

  19. Thank you so much for your Daily Lift!

  20. Should we look for our identity in appearances? ¿Am I Italian, short, brunette?
    "Jesus taught but one God, one Spirit, who makes man in the image and likeness of Himself, — of Spirit, not of matter. Man reflects infinite Truth, Life, and Love. The nature of man, thus understood, includes all that is implied by the terms "image" and "likeness" as used in Scripture" S&H 94:1

    ESPAÑOL
    ¿Es que debemos buscar nuestra identidad en las apariencias?
    ¿Soy italiana, de baja estatura, cabello castaño?
    “Jesús enseñó un único Dios, un Espíritu único, que hace al hombre a imagen y semejanza de Sí mismo —del Espíritu, no de la materia. El hombre refleja la Verdad, la Vida y el Amor infinitos. La naturaleza del hombre, así comprendida, incluye todo lo que está implícito en los vocablos "imagen" y "semejanza", como se usan en las Escrituras.” CyS 94:1

  21. I love this uplift so much! Throughout the years of my study in Christian Science, in search of being free of unhappy relationships due to not having the "right nationality" , the right title, the right bankamount, the right physicality etc.... I have come to appreciate the unconditional love of God. Now, I am working in the E.C. where nationalities and gender are so limiting and seemingly a condition to be appreciated by the bosses (clicques /networks of nationalities), therefore this uplift is like a saving angel message. Thank you !

  22. Much love and gratitude to you Fujiko for rhis powerful upliftment and healing message of light .

  23. thank you Fujiko,
    I always love your ideas.!

  24. Thank you.

  25. Thank you. A truly lovely Lift.

  26. Thank you.

  27. That was truly a wonderful start to this day!

  28. Thank you, what a great way to start our day that we are the children of Light.

  29. I am the child of God-shine, Love-shine, Life-shine, Mind-shine, Truth-shine, Spirit-shine, Soul-shine, Principle-shine! As Jonah learned, we cannot escape our true identity, what God has 'performed' for us. As Mrs Eddy tells us in this weeks lesson, (cit#3) "God could never impart (shine) an element of evil...", ill health, age, weight, burden, jealousy, fear, sarcasm, ugliness, ignorance, impatience, rebellion, unresponsiveness, antagonism, etc, etc... And that (cit#29) "The eternal Truth destroys what mortals seem to have learned from error,and man's real existence as a child of God comes to light (shines!)." I am a child of Light! Therefore I can with clarity shine intelligence, health,innocence, fearlessness, patience, charity, beauty, humility, receptivity, goodness, a pure, unfettered knowing of my identity! Thank you so much Fujiko, I always enjoy you lifts. They are so clear and concise and leave no doubts. Much gratitude for the comments before and after this one. How bright the world will be with all our 'shining' today!

  30. Thank you for sharing this uplift! And thank you too for all of the inspired comments. We are blessed again today!!

  31. The need to focus on our identity as God's child is so uplifting. Here,in the North,the daylight is shortened making light very precious. If however,we see spiritually,like you do Fujiko, there is never a short day of God's light. So wonderful to hear your truths spoken here. Thank you for shining you r light this way.

  32. Thank you!!! This DL really lifted me from what seemed to be a dark season in my experience. Thanks also to all the comments, specially JD #29. I will also shine today with " intelligence, health,innocence, fearlessness, patience, charity, beauty, humility, receptivity, goodness, a pure, unfettered knowing of my identity" !

  33. Somos hijos de la luz por lo tanto debemos brillar como tales, no permitirnos que la oscuridad se apodere de nosotros, armas tenemos, la oración que se eleva anhelosa de justicia divina en la firme convicción de que si vamos a la luz veremos y recibiremos más luz.
    Parece obvio, verdad aún así es bueno escuchar la certeza de esa realidad y está aquí ahora mismo al alcance de todos no solo con palabras sino y principalmente con un sentir cristiano que nos absorbe y nos eleva hacia esa luz más allá de nuestros propios pensamientos transformádolas en ideas genuinas de amor y bondad.

    Muchisimas gracias Fujiko, por tu mensaje y al Daily Lift por hacerlo posible para que Su luz nos alumbre diariamente.

  34. Just so inspiring, thank you for sharing thiswonderful lift.

  35. that is so helpful ! as someone who grew up in Canada, and then lived in Japan, for about 9 years altogether, my identity has been a bit mixed up at times, this is so helpful in reminding me of my divine identity as the base for reference, and not my "location" identity or human local cultural identity sterotypes and so on.

  36. Thank you for the light today.

  37. "I am God's beloved child in whom He is well pleased." And thanks for all of the other inspiring ideas on identity expressed in the Lift and comments.

  38. Thank you, Fujiko, for your clear insight and calm, loving manner.

    Thanks also to Troy #13. I look forward to reading your comments as they are heartfelt and most interesting. I attended my Association meeting last weekend and the addressor offered many excellent ideas about never accepting a personality as our proper self. Your distinction here about individuality is very helpful also.

  39. Merci, adorable Fujiko ! Ce matin, la brume recouvrait tout le paysage, et ce midi, LE SOLEIL BRILLE : Le voile est levé.... Témoignage : Il y a 9 ans, j'avais une élève déconnectée de la réalité matérielle : elle tenait des propos délirants, ne jouait jamais avec ses camarades, ne s'intéressait à aucune activité scolaire et donc n'apprenait rien, ne faisait que rêver dans son monde imaginaire. Le cas étant trop lourd pour moi et même pour la psychologue, je décidai de la confier aux bons soins de Dieu. La nuit, dans mon lit, j'affirmai qu'elle était l'enfant parfaite de Dieu, reflétait les qualités parfaites de Dieu, qu'elle était donc capable d'apprendre, qu'elle était saine d'esprit, heureuse et aimée de tous. Enfant aimée de Dieu, elle avait droit à son héritage divin, à sa réussite, à son épanouissement. Le lendemain, elle me dit qu'elle allait travailler, qu'elle voulait apprendre à lire, ce qu' ELLE FIT ! A la récréation, elle se mit à jouer avec ses camarades, pleine de joie, heureuse de vivre. Remarquant le changement, stupéfiée, une collègue me dit : "Tu as vu ta petite, elle n'est plus la même, elle joue ! C'est un miracle !" Une autre enfant me dit : "Je n'avais jamais vu qu'elle était belle..." Elle n'a plus jamais déliré depuis ce jour-là ! NOUS SOMMES TOUS LES ENFANTS PARFAITS DE LA LUMIERE-DIEU ! Très bonne journée lumineuse pour tous ! Avec tout mon amour

  40. I've really been thinking about identifying myself and others as children of God, seeing only what God created and sees. It's not easy sometimes as thought wants to wander to what mortal sense sees. However, with the desire to only see as God sees is prayer and I quickly can say no to such thoughts. I love the part about the sun and getting closer to it we see ONLY light. I know my desire of getting closer to God will also let me see only the light of Truth about me and ALL of God's creation. Thanks so much for this great Daily LIft.

  41. Thank you. I am blessed to be able to call the Daily Lift on my cell phone at any time during my day on whatever I am doing at the time. 1-617-450-3430 is on my list of contacts, and makes my visits to places away from my PC home cable connection very very good.

  42. Sweet ...with clarity, love/light....& endless inspiration!
    Always....".a visual to take with us".......from evey one of your lifts , Ms. FS!!
    Thank you so much!!

    Grateful to have shared time with you @ Chicago's Church Alive, last year!
    Equally inspired, then!! :)

  43. "This little of mine...I going to let shine. Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!!!!!!!!!!

  44. Thank you.

  45. Thank you Fujiko. I love, not only your thoughts, but your sweet presentation of them. You are special! And so am I !

  46. Thank you for this Lift .. as some one in the public eye so to speak one is always identified in some way... but knowing that you are a child of the Infinite light ..with a divine identity...is very uplifting and joyous ...

  47. Gracias Fujiko por el tema elegido y gracias Elena por tus inspirados comentarios en español.

  48. Thanks Fújiko!! (Emphasis on the first syllable, not the second..)

    There is one kind: children of God! It is only a false human sense that would immediately divide us into groups, first, male or female, next, healthy or unhealthy, big or little, premature or late, then further into races, cultures, moods, etc!!

    There is only God and what He thinks , and what He thinks is at least mighty, immortal and good.(S&H)

    God expresses Himself fully, infinitely individually, and so each of us are "the full representation of Mind," as Mrs Eddy says, "where human sense hath not seen man."

    "We can, and ultimately shall, so rise as to avail ourselves in every direction of the supremacy of Truth over [the] error" of physical sense that would divide God's thoughts into mortal classifications. (S&H)

  49. Thank you for the lift. It instilled in me a sense of peace and joy as I start a busy day. Thank you also to all the commentors. I am blessed by the fact that nations throughout the world are represented. How beautiful to know that on every part of the globe there are children of Light encouraging one another. Blessings to all...

  50. Thank you so very much, Fujiko, for the clarity and light of these healing thoughts. Then we're just one universal family of sunbeams...

    And thanks to Troy #13 and Michelle #39, music and all.

  51. Thank you, Fujiko. Your question, Who are you? reminds me of a prayer that I often use: I am what God says that I am, and that's all that I am.

  52. I so enjoy your lifts because of your sweet voice and your wisdom-Thank you so very much!

  53. Thank you Fujiko, for your gentle,light filled Lift. I always hear music after listening to your voice it's so sweet and loving.
    Thank you to Nate, all the BoL and all the commentators.
    Joan P. NJ

  54. Thank you Fujiko for reminding us about our real identity and how to see the other people; this is something I have to work a lot.
    Lots of Love to all the DL Community!

  55. Thank you so much Fujiko for sharing your insight and wisdom.How often these Lifts are the exact truth I need to hear to spiritualize my thought. Thank you too Martin Vesley (#2) for your quote from S&H. The fact that the closer we move our thought to see as God sees, we do not lose individuality but gain greater individuality is important to understand. People only fear the disappearance of matter because they believe they are matter -- a physical body. Or they identify themselves with their possessions -- their car, their house, their wealth. They may even think that without these things they are nothing. It couldn't be farther from the truth. These objects are the counterfeits of spirit. Perfect ideas can never be lost or destroyed and becoming aware of the fact that you are spirit, perfect thought, brings greater ability, peace, understanding and wisdom -- not less as mortal mind would have you believe. Your location on the globe, place of birth, physical appearance, personality or mannerisms do not define you. "Define" is a limiting word and we were made in God's image which is infinite but also provides spiritual individuality for each one of us.

  56. The ways most humans identify themselves are many. Take the USA for example; I am an American, a Yankee, a C/S, a Honky, etc.
    I suppose those coming from other countries are called by their native lands and other names. This all leads to some kind of intolerance, which leads into "I am better than you." Which leads into hate and war. Suppose we take an easier way by realizing our true identity, which is the subject of today's Daily Lift, as a child of God. Wars would be prevented, crimes against people because of religion or ethnicity would be erased. So easy, and yet for humans, so hard to do.

  57. Identify yourself as a child of God- thanks Fujiko for beautiful idea in simple & beautiful way.

  58. Heartfelt gratitude for the daily lift. So needed in universal thought and I will cross the ocean
    with it.

  59. Thank you for this simple truths about our identity.

  60. Thank you, Fujiko!

    I feel that it's very important for each one of us to challenge labels whenever we discern that they're being used to diminish or discredit someone (or to puff them up, for that matter). For example, after a hurtful breakup, a person could be tempted to assassinate the character of the one who initiated the breakup. Damaging labels might be applied directly or through subtlety: insinuation, innuendo, even the pretense of a "mistake." Wikipedia.org has an interesting description of "character assassination" as a particularly nefarious form of bullying, because the person being slandered isn't even present to defend himself or herself!

    One way to challenge the misrepresentation of Christian Science and Mary Baker Eddy, I feel, is to stand up reliably and courageously to false labels (of ANY person or group) right in our own churches, workplaces, and homes. I feel that, as we lift impositions of false labels everywhere, we can also be a better friend to Mary Baker Eddy. The antidote, of course, is seeing through false influence. God is the only Mind there is! We're witnesses of the oneness of Mind and of everyone's true identity as purely spiritual (unassailable).

  61. Wonderful... thank you so much!

  62. Translation of my comment #39 : Thank you, adorable Fujiko ! This morning, the mist covered the whole landscape, and this afternoon, THE SUN SHINES ! : THE VEIL IS LIFTED...Testimony : 9 years ago, I had a student disconnected from material reality. She raved, was delirious. She never played with her friends, not interested in any school activity, and therefore, learned nothing, only dreamed in her imaginary world. The case being too heavy for me and even for the psychologist, I decided to entrust her to the good cares of GOD. At night, in my bed, I declared that she was the perfect child of God, she reflected the perfect qualities of God. Therefore, she was able to learn, she was sane in her mind, happy and loved by all. Child loved by God, she had the right of her divine heritage, her success and her development. The next day morning, she told me that she wanted to work, to learn to read, what she did ! At the hour of amusement, playings, she began to play with her friends, joyful, happy to live. Noticing the change, amazed, a colleague told me : "Have you seen your little girl, she is no longer the same, she plays, it's a miracle !" Another child said : "I have never seen that she was beautiful ! But, she IS beautiful !". She has never raved since that day ! WE ARE ALL PERFECT CHILDREN OF THE LIGHT-GOD ! Very good bright day, full of Light to all ! With all my love !

  63. Thank you, I am going to see the Good in everyone today

  64. This is a lovely, gentle lift that offers a peaceful resolution to any inner conflict as to who we really are and directs our thougth to the sunlight of Truth that reveals our spiritual identity as whole and perfect in the sight of God! Thank you!

  65. Thank you, dear Fujiko, for always practicing and living this true sense of identity. .

  66. Thank you Fujiko :) shine as a child of light! I love it- what a beautiful lift and a wonderful way to start the day...

  67. This Lift is beautiful! I loved re-listening, basking in the message and felt warmed and encouraged! Great comments, too. #39 Michele shares an amazing healing - well worth translating (even with google translate glitches) This Lift brought to mind hymn 109 & 442 by Maria Louise Baum that speaks of light and reflecting God's radiancy and ends with "Till through joyful self-surrender, We in Love's pure likeness shine." That self-surrender of limiting identifying labels naturally gives way to shining forth in the splendor of Love's pure shining!!!! Thank you< Fujiko, for this delightful Lift!

  68. Thank you Fujiko!
    See how much light has been shared around the world this morning -- to help us
    see ourself and the other people -- filled with LIGHT -- no dark shadows.

  69. Fujiko, thanks for the assignment—SHINE!

  70. Thank you Fujiko for this gentle reminder of who we reallly are. I love the idea that we are an individual spiritual consciousness, the image and likeness of God, His expression of perfect being. Knowing this we can rejoice that we are never outside of His presence, control or influence. And that, like our T4thinkers shared today,live to glorify God, living only in the now. Thank you DLifters for this inspiring program. Thanks also Nate for your beautiful article in the latest Sentinel. Your thoughts encourage us all to cast out those false demons or false beliefs of life in matter.

  71. "Unselfed identity" as a child of light surely does free us from so many issues! Thank you for this sharing, Fujiko!

  72. Thank you for this great lift. I also liked # 13's comments.

  73. What a wonderful lift....I feel the infinite ray of inspiration ...just what I needed to start this day ....thank you!

  74. Wow. "The closer we get to God, we experience unselfed identity." What a thought. This must be an example of being made new every morning, as it is opening up a whole new window of thought for me. I feel so light now! Thank you dear Fujiko, and all who are producing and supporting these lifts.

  75. Thank you, Fujiko... how we all need to focus on this universal light and not be distracted or motivated by limited views and shadows
    .

  76. Fujiko, I love your lift! We need to daily remind ourselves of our most important identifying characteristic, nay, our only true identity, as a child of Light, a child of God! Shine on!!

    PS Mindy Jostyn has a great song about this: "If anybody asks you about who I am... you can tell him I am a child of God!"

  77. Thank you Fujiko for this great lift! Wonderful comments too! Our identity and being comes from God, Good, Love. Therefore we can only reflect and express these qualities. No room for error!
    Beautiful day to all!!

  78. Fujiko.....I am always joyful when I hear your "Lifts"......and this one is especially endearing and oh so helpful. You mention that you had sometimes previously felt somewhat limited by a national identity. Whenever I see your photo and hear your lift I am only conscious of a beloved, lovely and gracious, beautiful expression of Soul and Spirit, filled with love for mankind....emanating from our precious Father-Mother God. We can all sparkle like diamonds when we turn to the Light and reflect that Light. Like a diamond in the dark away from the light, none of the beauty would be evident. As we draw closer to God and realize that there is only one Mind, and that Mind is our Mind, we take on a spiritual glow about us and matter thins out and begins to start to fade away. Your lift today certainly brought this to my attention, and you surely are a prime example of this. Even your lovely, gentle voice has a calming effect, and I know all this comes straight from God. Thank you for this healing, gentle message today.

  79. Great question. Sometimes when something feels so shameful a person will go to great lengths of production and half truths to avoid what is really needed to clear the air about the TRUTH.
    The truth is very simple can be stated a few sentences not a script. We can distort and enlist others to distort the TRUTH. However it is always simple. Knowing the real truth about each other is simple as well no miasmas to dig through or that lend to great drama.
    Divine truth and cleverness are two different ends of a spectrum of thought. Setumes humans to save face (so to speak) or to look like they are saving someone else's face will go to extreme lengths. There is no need to influence anyone, the truth is loud and clear, we are all Gods perfect ideas, HONEST, upright and pure.

  80. Dear Fujiko: Thank you for your beautiful thought today. By including your personal feelings about identity, specifically "being Japanese," you have shown that you have given the topic much thought and therefore, able to bring spiritual identity clearly into our thought! Thank you so much!

  81. Fujiko thank you

  82. Thank you! We are all children of our loving Father, aren't we!

  83. Thank you Fujiko. Also, Mary Baker Eddy gives the true definition of Man as the compound idea of infinite spirit, God's spiritual image and likeness, and the full representation of Mind. Working with this definition each day has helped me to see my true identity as a child of God.

  84. Me thinks your Japanese heritage is a wonderful place to begin to Shine, and you really do Shine in all you do!

  85. A deep thank you, dear Fujiko, for your enlightening lift today. Yes, we are all interconnected as the children of Light. I love to hear your lovely voice and message to spread the truth. Be blessed and all too.

  86. Thank you Fajiko for your loving thoughts. Having had the great pleasure and joy of living in Tokyo and being a member of the Tokyo church for 4 years it warms my heart to see all the respondents from around the world appreciate the real Truth about who we all are. Thank you for the role you play in spreading the goodness of Christian Science. We are all one family as God's children and I rejoyce in the Love that Mrs. Eddy dedicated her life to sharing with the whole world.

  87. I love this Lift. Thank you so much!

  88. I feel Blessed by the Authority of the thought. It is good to all.

  89. Thank you, Fukiko. Your words and thoughts are so comforting. I love being identified as a child of God and not fear any negative thoughts from others. The writer from France, #i67 I think, also cheered me with the identity the girl assumed from right thinking and love. Knowing our identity is protected is keeping many in their "right places."

  90. Such a blessing Fujiko - thank you for your beautiful clear message about our identity, our true and only identity as the children of Light ......... simply wondrous!

  91. Oh this is a beautiful message!!! Thank you to sweet Fujiko!!!! We are a " child of light"~~ I love it!! Thank you to all the lifters, I can't express enough how much I'm learning and oh we are definitely shining today and everyday!!
    Love to all

  92. Such a lovely Lift and so true. The less we identity with human heritage the freer we fell. I appreciate this reminder. Thank you.

  93. Thanks Fujiko! Your "Daily Lifts" are always among my favorites. All are wonderful, but yours seem to reinforce the peace and tranquility of light - and of all of us being children of the light. This helps as I am trying, very desperately, to clear out and recover from depression, darkness, regret/guilt, grief and sadness. If only such states would resolve as easily and suddenly as they seem to come onto us. Christian Science is a lifesaver - not sure if I would be here if it weren't for the inspiration found in CS to keep going and believe we are more than this material existence.

  94. Lovely. Thank you.

  95. Thanks a lot for this spiritual and practical outlook of being!

  96. This message has been very helpful for today - less self, more freedom!

  97. Fujiko, this is beautiful and so are you.

  98. This is such a joyous message. Sometimes you hear the sad tale that someone "got dealt a bad hand" as if luck and chance determine our prospects. This lift shows that sentiment to be bogus. We are all so precious to God and receive all the qualities for a blessing life.

    Thanks to you, Fujik and all upLifters!

  99. Thank you Fujiko, lovely message.

  100. To #93:

    My prayers are with you. No serpent's poison (depression) can inject itself into your true being. You are safe in God.

  101. Yes, i am doing just that... today and always... thank you

  102. Simply BEAUTIFUL! And what a sweet, gentle, soothing, loving voice you have. Thank you so much for your message.

  103. I liked being reminded to get closer to God, THANK YOU, FUJIKO!

  104. Thanks. So helpful

  105. 76, LOVE the Mindi Jostyn lyrics!!

    83, right on!

    93, let your "treasure" be above material existence, let this rescue you..here are .two quotes from Science and Health:

    "Starting from a higher standpoint, one rises spontaneously, even as light emits light without effort; for “where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”

    "“To begin rightly is to end rightly. Every concept which seems to begin with the brain begins falsely.”

    These went a long way in helping me rise above darkness..

    ..with love to the DL community

  106. This is wonderful, Fujiko. It is an important reminder to rise above the appearance of the material to the spiritual Truth.

  107. Thanks, Fujiko. Really sweet and good! True, also.

  108. Dear Fujiko

    It is interesting to note that "Light/light" is mentioned 12 times in Gen 1 (King James Version of the Bible)

    Also "Let/let" is mentioned -- . May one let you fill in the spaces,would that be an instruction?.

    All have a wonderful adventure researching Gen 1 it is a beautiful experience.

    Love in Christ

    Peter.

  109. Thank you so much Fujiko. Just for the record....I, (and I think many others), don't have any negative thoughts about Japanese people...only good. Like hard working, resilient, principled, orderly, diligent, etc., etc.!!! And, when I think about you, I thing about your gentleness, sweetness, and lovely sense of spirituality. Keep shining! (=

  110. thank you for that -glaze resting in the unsearchable realm of Mind-- true sense.

  111. I see what God is .Thank you.

  112. It is very clear.

    Gracias encantadora Fujiko. Gracias Padre-Madre Dios, por crearnos a todos nosotros en Tú imagen y semejanza y por mantenernos a todos perfectos y espirituales. Y gracias porque todos somos, en todo el universo, los amados hijos del Amor divino, unidos en paz y felicidad.

  114. Yes, thank you very much for your inspiring thoughts; and I also agree with # 19 Nelly aus der Schweiz and also all the other lovely comments.
    Best wishes from Germany.

  115. I came home from traveling all day to your beautiful comments. They strengthen me and support me too! The good thing about being a child of Light is that you can see better and you can be found easily!!
    Much love and hugs to all!! fujiko

  116. Oh Fujiko, thank you for commenting #114! I loved what you said and I am so glad you got to see the love and shining you inspired and healing exchanges your Lift ignited and the appreciation we all have for you.
    Welcome home! xoTracy

  117. Dear Fujiko,
    I am just picking this up from Baja California MX. What a wonderfully freeing thought- to accept that we are children of God (infinite Good, all harmonious). Materiality doesn't "shine", it seems to absorb influences around it. I love the thought of continuing to shine, closer to Life, Light.
    Thank you for your light!!! xxoo Leslee

  118. Belated, but none the less grateful for this precious lift. Thank you Fujiko. AND thanks to the DL team for the lovely music and for being so consistent (so daily) in bringing these lifts to the world.

  119. Thanks so much Fujiko and all the commentors! I just read this DL today but felt the message of true ID held by all of you. I particularly loved #39 by Michele. What an incredible impact your true thought, Christ thinking, had on that little girl, and everyone saw it.

  120. Thank you Fujiko for this lovely lift! If we identify ourselves correctly we are indeed lifted...above the limited mortal sense of things.

  121. Thank you fujiko, what a good question- Who are you? I pondered this some time ago and asked a few people if they could answer this question correctly and it turns out the only true answer is I am the precious and loved child of god. All other answers are "What am I?"

  122. Thank you Fujiko for this "Lift." It inspired me after seeing the play ALLEGIANCE in San Diego. It is about a family during the Japanese Interment Camps in the USA. It is about each person finding his and her own identity during a terrible time of war. Those who survived saw something more important in their lives than just a label. Oh if only we always saw ourselves and others as the child of God expressing that perfect whole perfection. At intermission, those who visited with each other expressed such a common thread of a loving Father Mother God. Ann Botts,,Banning, CA

  123. In the above comment, please forgive the misspelling. "Internment" Camps is the correction. Thousands
    of ID tags hung from the ceiling in the lobby of the theater. A woman looking at them told me that her farther-in-law's tag was there. I said to her that an ID tag could never tell one what his true identity is---God's precious child. God had that loved one identified all the time. She sweetly thanked me for that thought. Ann

  124. Thank you for letting the light shine within you and in others - we can see more clearly who we are -
    and not what we are with labels. Declaring our true identity is our daily prayer - Much love, fujiko

  125. Thank you, Fujiko

    A lift radiant with love, inspiration and light

    love, Meenu
