10/9: Be a CAN DO immortal

10/9: Be a CAN DO immortal

  1. When we acknowledge that the Christ is at work in our lives, we cant help but to become a "CAN DO immortal." In Christian Science we learn as Mary Baker Eddy says in S&H, With God all things are possible. She goes on to say, "Divinity is always ready. Semper paratus is Truth's motto." This gives us the can do, always ready status we need to demonstrate over whatever would try to limit us. Thank you Evan for this great lift.

  2. I woke up this morning full of Can Do immortal thoughts! I love the explanation of why. Thanks so much, Evan!

  3. EXACTLY the message I needed as I start a hugely busy day. thank you so much for the reminder, Evan.

  4. Thanks a lot....I realize I was becoming a "can't do " mortal these days, as you so well describe .I can write to you and communicate to start with...and do lots of other things , like listen to God and be a child of God !!!!I'll try that today.Thanks a lot

  5. Thank you Evan for a very Inspiring Thought Transfer to us from God ! So Comforting to be Able to share our Love Of God and Know "God is Love."

    I want to openly Thank all who are so inspired to openly express our Gratitude to God in so many Ways, and make this possible to Share !

    I Love you All, as God does also,

    Thanks, Chuck Hutaff.

  6. Excellent Point! Thanks

  7. NOT A SICK MORTAL NOT A WELL MORTAL; BUT AN IMMORTAL IDEA OF GOD.

    THANK YOU EVAN !!

  8. Thank you. Very healing.

  9. Good boy Evan!

  10. Thank you, Evan. Just lovely. It made me smile. That's something we can all do.

  11. Thank you, Evan, for discussing the choice of being a CAN DO immortal. While I was listening to your message, the idea "I am able" occurred to me. After looking this up in Concord, I found it was from Miscellany, 165:20 where we can read "I am able to impart truth, health, and happiness, and this is my rock of salvation and my reason for existing." Yes, we are able to be CAN DO immortals!

    Thanks again, Evan.

  12. This lift fits so perfectly following Thanksgiving (Yesterday) that Canadians have been celebrating. Thank you for the "can do" gratitude/attitude reminder that heals.

  13. Thank you, Evan, for “Be a CAN DO Immortal … ‘I can do all things through Christ, who gives me strength’…” You bring out the importance and power of how we choose to identify ourselves. I’ve learned that my choice makes all the difference in my quality of life on a daily basis. I love how you put it, too: “CAN’T DO Mortal” or “CAN DO Immortal.” Many years ago, I was the “man” in your Lift. A Christian Science practitioner helped me to claim my God authorized “CAN-DO-ness” by encouraging me first to put in writing that list of what I felt was my “CAN’T-DO-ness.” I was told to name that list, “Material Counterfeit.” Then, on the other side of the page – the CAN DO side, I was encouraged to list what I was learning as the “Spiritual Counterfact” of myself as God’s man. Next, I was told to tear the page in half and throw away the “Material Counterfeit” or “CAN’T DO” list and live according to my “Spiritual Counterfact” or “CAN DO” list. The Bible says that we’re in the image and likeness of God. In the Glossary of the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health, the definition of “God” includes seven synonyms. It’s been helpful in claiming myself as a “CAN DO Immortal” to practice living the qualities derived from the synonyms; e.g. Love is one synonym with qualities like kindness, gratitude, courtesy, forgiveness, affection, respect, humor, and mercy - I CAN DO. It’s really my choice! How grateful I am for the Christ-strength to prove God’s law of progress. So many blessings!

  14. Thank you! Also, I like the "can do" gratitude/attitude Kate mentions.

  15. All the obstacles that appear to be on our way might seem to be real and the obvious evidence of God's absence, but I found that they are only aggressive mental suggestions that there exists a power that could oppose God.
    Did God ever wink and missed the error that assails us? impossible, because the Christ is ever active in us.
    Christ is the power and presence of God at work in our lives, giving us strength and ability, health and wellness, to be productive and be free of limit.
    Christ brings out our immortal individuality, so we can say with Paul, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” Phil. 4:13

    ESPAÑOL
    Todos los obstáculos que parecen estar en nuestro camino parecen ser reales y la obvia evidencia de la ausencia de Dios, pero yo hallo que solo son sugestiones mentales agresivas de que existe un poder que se puede oponer a Dios.
    ¿Es que Dios pestañó y no vio al error que nos acecha? Imposible, pues el Cristo está siempre activo en nosotros.
    Cristo es el poder y presencia de Dios obrando en nuestras vidas, dándonos fuerza y abilidad, salud y bienestar, para ser productivos y libres de límites.
    Cristo saca a relucir nuestra individualidad, tanto que podemos decir con Pablo, “Todo lo puedo en Cristo que me fortalece” Filipenses 4:13

  16. Evan, Thank you

  17. very very helpful, thank you.

  18. Thank you Evan just what I needed this evening you have given me a different way of looking at a problem.

  19. In the words of Mr Burns "excellent!" Thank you so much Evan, this is a brilliant Lift. :-)

    Beannachd,
    Shelagh

  20. Sometimes we just need the encouragement of a simple "of course you can" to bring that "smile " to our lips from that kind angel message.All things ARE possible unto God. Thank you Evan for this simple but very uplifting message.

  21. Evan, this enior thanks you for this lift ,which is a much needed jolt out of the acceptance of the so called concept of old age and the accompanying aches and pains. Immediately upon reading your uplift Mrs Eddy's Statement from S&H came to mind " WE must act as possessing all power from Him in whom we live and move and have our being"

  22. I love this! Keeps me on the right track. Thank you.

  23. Just what I needed this morning and for every day from now on. Thank you.

  24. Many thanks Evan for this great lesson on renewal of strength. Yes. "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." (Phil. 4:13). " We feel Thy peace, Thine arms of Love/ enfolding,/ We lift our hearts in praise and gratitude,/ And from this hour, a glimpse of heaven/ beholding,/ Go forth at last, our joy and strength/ renewed." (Christian Science Hymnal Supplement #450).

  25. Today's lift is just perfect for me today. It really is divine Love meeting the human need. Thank you.

  26. Thanks, Evan!
    That's a good message to pass on, and I have had some experience of it.
    One of my grandsons has always loved drawing. I encouraged this, and he was very good at it from an early age; however, at around five or six years he became self-critical and would get vey upset if he made a mistake, crying "I'm no good. I can't do it!" I would gently tell him, "Hey, we can rub that out and do it again. Never say "can't" - you're not a can't-do Matthew, you're a can-do Matthew!" And he would calm down and finish his drawing. When he was seven he won 2nd prize in a children's competition for the best drawing of a flower! I said to him, NOW you know you're a can-do Matthew!

  27. Thank you, Evan, for the timely reminder of what we can do, when consciousness chooses the 'sunlight of Truth and Love' and turns away from the shadows of gloom-thought. To look up and to know, that 'with God, all things are possible' is to begin our demonstration of walking in that sunlight! Thank you, Evan, and for the succinct picture your words paint!! Much love from S. Yorkshire, UK!

  28. Very good! thank you so much.

  29. I am so happy with this Lift. This idea had come to me this morning that "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" I seemed to whistle through all my jobs.
    Love the idea from nela about the can and cant doness lists. I was just writing in my gratitude journal when the phone rang, whilst I was picking it up to answer it I thought I can manage to go to that meeting tonight......and it was my friend asking if I was going, I said yes even though my grand daughter is coming for tea, I'll drop her off home and go on to the meeting.
    There is only one mind..............Wonderful

  30. Thank you for this great Lift. There are things I do that many people feel I should not be doing. I tell them 'if I feel like doing it I will do it, it is not going to hurt me'. I know that God is with me. Thanks again.

  31. Thank you very very much, Evan, for this so really uplifting Lift. Will straightaway affirm my God-given abilities, which are so precious and for which we can be so grateful!

  32. Got it! THX!

  33. Thank you so much for a truly great "LIFT" to my thoughts.

  34. Thank you so much and thanks to all the comments. I agree with each and every one. I always think in terms of can do immortal when I am faced to challenges in my job that might seem above my capabilities. And it works! When I have a difficult task I think: "well father, you know I do not have the degree I need for this work but if You put me in this job, then I am capable of doing it. Not that I am capable of doing it by myself but because I can do all things through Christ"

  35. Thank you Evan and thanks to ALL the comments. I always try to think in terms of a "can-do-immortal" although to this day I never used that expression. At work, when I am faced with a difficult task, I say to God: "Father, you know that I do not have the academic preparation for this job but if you have put me here, then I will be capable of doing it". And it WORKS!!! And that is because through Christ we can do all things because he strenghtens us as Paul said. I am very very grateful for these DAily Lifts and for the people who work there.

  36. Very succinct and helpful. Thank you

  37. Siento que podemos hacer mucho más de lo que las costumbres nos enseñan, estamos educados en una limitación de posibilidades, veamos, lo que hacen los "autistas" cosas increíbles para el común de la gente algunas parecidas a las que hacía Cristo Jesús, naturalmente las hacen, y eso nos asombra y los catalogamos como discapacitados porque no siguen el orden humano rechazan al mundo material, lo mismo y mucho más podemos hacer nosotros si nos apartamos de la enseñanza humana y volcamos todo nuestro esfuerzo en educarnos con las premisas espirituales siguiendo la enseñanza de Cristo, por esa senda que conduce a la inmortalidad, de la que ya somos parte, podemos decir: la Verdad nos despertó para que vivamos en Amor la inmortal eternidad.

    Muchas gracias Evan, podemos porque somos vástagos de Dios e inmortales.

  38. This helps. It helped me to focus what what I can do instead of what I can't. I may not be able to run, but I can walk. I can't sing, but I play the accordion well. I may not be able to run General Motors, but I am a good accountant and financial manager for the company I work for.

    God gives us individual gifts. We need to be grateful for the specific ones He has give us.

  39. many thanks evan

  40. Thank you for this great Lift, Evan.
    Muito obrigada pelo pensamento inspirado de hoje.

  41. Wonderful ! Thank you ! : -)

  42. When faced with a problem I state "All substance, intelligence, wisdom, being, immortality, cause and effect belong to God." Declaring that God is the source of my intelligence has had some amazing results. God as the source of my wisdom has led me to make better choices. Of course, I also have to listen for that still small voice and follow it. But with God all things are possible - what a great promise!

  43. Exactly what i needed to hear today, thanks Evan!

  44. Thank you.

  45. Lori, #42. That is a very helpful.

  46. Your voice always brings a smile to my face and I love this message. Many thanks!

  47. Thanks
    Evan, for this wonderful lift - I especially like #38 Dennis's remark 'to be grateful
    for the gifts God gives to each of us.'

  48. THANK YOU for this can do message , it helps to adjust the downwind of doom and gloom to an uplifting flight of gratitude and possibilities.

  49. Really find today's Lift very helpful. Thank you, Evan. My mom used to say to me, "can't never wins!". Will work and pray with the Philippians quote today, along with hymn 450 and S&H 264:10 as shared by your responders.

  50. Thank you Evan. What a wonderful way to start our day.

  51. Most grateful for this up Lift today, Evan. As a shy child, my dear mother used to lovingly remind me to drop the "I CAN'T" of mortal mind, and to replace it with the "I CAN" of the Divine Mind!

  52. I believe Paul Stark Seeley brought out this simple thought, related to the today's lift: "I can is the son of I AM."
    (Mr. Seeley was a teacher of Christian Science, a lecturer, and an editor of the periodicals in the mid-and late 1940's).

  53. Hi Evan,

    You certainly hit a point of the Bible that has always struck me - the citation from Philippians 4:13 !
    Whenever these words come into my mind they literally lift me up and produces the effect you describe here - "I become a can do immortal"!
    Thank you very much!

  54. THank you dear Evan.

  55. Thanks for reminding me. I now feel full of God's energy.

  56. Evan, thank you. Much appreciation for this Lift! What comes to thought is hymn 354 in the hymnal --

    " 'Tis God the Spirit leads in paths before unknown; the work to be performed is ours, the strentth is all His own." and the following two verses.

    Very grateful for thought being lifted by these Lifts.

  57. Wow! Thank you, Even, for this wonderful "wake up" call. As one of the "baby-boomer" generation, and dealing with a recent challenge...that "can't do....mortal list" had about 10 items a few months ago...lots of progress has been made, but several major "can't do yet" situations still seemed real! Your short, but crystal clear lift for us this morn is awesome....and the timing couldn't be better for me. Again, thanks much...new motto...."no such thing as a can't do list in the kingdom of Heaven" Love the quote from the Bible....I will hold to that, pray with that today. :)

  58. In this week's Lesson, the 11th citation, Mrs. Eddy says, "We cannot choose for ourselves, but must work out our salvation in the way Jesus taught." "Work" is the important message I find. (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, page 30.)
    Thank you.

  59. Evan, again you haave help me understand the importance of taking control of my thoughts. Thank You

  60. Thanks, Evan! I have a lot of MUST DOs today, and your lift was perfect, reminding me that with Christ I can do all that's really needed.

  61. Great lift... thank you!

  62. That is so true we can do anything if we put are Mind into it. thank you

  63. Dear Evan, as usual, you got my thinking going after hearing this mornings Daily Lift. As I have said many times in the Daily Lifts and your Spirit Views, I have 24/7 Nurse Aide help. Since these dedicated Aides are not C/S, they are always coming to me with all their so-called ills and pills, which makes it harder for me to demonstrate C/S prayer. So what I am going to do is tell them; "Hey! you guys, what do you want to be, a sick mortal or a perfect healthy immortal child of God?" Using your simple analogy, but changing the words around a little. I will let you know how well it worked out. I am knowing for them their spiritual reality.

  64. Can do -- Can't do. Spirit -- Matter. Thanks Evan for refreshing our awareness of our spiritual nature. Indeed, we are "can do" immortals. The Oct 16 Sentinel has an article called, "Seeing the Presence of God." Your lift Evan reminds me of a sentence that I have been praying with ever since my CS practitioner brought this article to my attention. "Right where matter is claiming presence and space, right there is God, Spirit, filling all space and governing all action." We can in every moment choose to deny barriers put up by matter or mortal mind recognizing them as "can't do" limitations. And instead, we can choose to reflect God's image and recognize his infinitude.

  65. When I was given this new computer, Evan, I thought I'd never be able to find my way around the keys, and the amazing things that happened almost without touching the keys! But I just kept holding to the Truth that Principle creates perfect ideas, and God would show me "how to go." It wasn't easy, but gradually I gained in proficiency, and I still need to ask for help which is always forthcoming! How wonderful to think - to realize, to understand - we are CAN DO IMMORTALS! And so many others could be too, if they would just have a go.
    Many thanks Nate and the production team; the BoL and lecturers; and the immortal CAN DO Daily Lifters.

  66. Thanks for the WAKEUP CALL!!!
    Jim M. 9n Scottsdale, AZ

  67. Such a helpful reminder,Evan.Thank you.
    I recall a time when I was putting up wall paper in a bedroom.Seemed like quite a task.Then an angel message told me I had all the qualities of Mind,God,to complete the job.All went so smoothly after that acknowledgement.And the room looked lovely.To this day I treasure the thought that came to me.

  68. Thank you! It reminds me of Hymn #324 in the Christian Science Hymnal which begins:
    The 2nd and 3rd verses are great, too!

    "Take my life, and let it be
    Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
    Take my moments and my days,
    Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
    Take my hands, and let them move
    At the impulse of Thy love."

    by Frances R. Havergal

  69. Thank you.

  70. Thank you Evan , this is a wonderful lift, I can do all through Christ Jesus .

  71. Dear Evan, As I start the fall tasks before winter sets in I've been telling myself that there are certain things that I can't do. Now I know that I can do them and if not, God will supply what is necessary to complete the tasks, whether it be new ideas or helping hands. How grateful I am for these Lifts that each day supply us with Christ's message of ability, strength, perservance, and Infinite love to meet all our needs.

  72. Was looking forward to today's Daily Lift to help meet a need and it was spot on as I thought it would be.

    Thank you Evan

  73. Thank you!

  74. Thank you so much, Evan!!! We all need this reminder. I feel like I've attended an outstanding pep rally!! God is my cheerleader!!!
    So appreciate all the comments!!
    Love to all We CAN DO IT

  75. Big thanks Evan!
    And thanks to all the comments too.
    Loved reading #52 from Paul Starke Seeley
    "I can is the son of I AM." (Son or daughter!!)

  76. Thanks Evan; I really liked your lift...no limitations, when God says "Yes you can" we can be children of the Light and not of the darkness!! we cannot contradict God; then, we must contradict mortal mind!!!

  77. Gratitude to Evan. Yes, I can. I will begin by making others smile and feel at peace.

  78. Thank you for this uplifting thought. It makes us look away from what the mortal body is saying or what the world is saying about us to how God sees us. He sees us as never limited because He gives us dominion therefore we can do what we all need to do. The perfect thought that I needed to know today.

  79. Perfect life/lift for today, Thanks Evan! Beginning some seasonal household changes this morning, some "can't do any more negativity was creeping in" for myself and for my husband. Of course, always "can do" with Divine Mind's direction. A blessed day to all!

  80. Thank you Evan. This reminded me of what my Dad used to tell me when I was a child "can't never could do anything". I will press on to the high mark of Christ!

  81. Wow! Wonderful daily lift.....just the boost I needed to get this day started.....:))

  82. Thank you Evan, positive thinking.

  83. Cheerful, brilliant, and helpful. Thanks so much Evan for this UPlift!

  84. Thank you Evan - this is great. And of course, all the commenters just expand the wonderful lift to a full spiritual bath! I tend to procrastinate big jobs and I have a deadline looming this morning. I woke up early with a can do attitude and lots of angel messages. I was able to complete it and then listened to your lift which to me solidified God's message to me in being able to finish up my work.

    Thank you to the daily lift team for this wonderful inspiration.

  85. Thank you Evan!
    Beautiful day to all!

  86. I WANT to do it because God wants me to; I CAN do it because God is at my right hand! Thanks, Evan.

  87. Wonderful lift Evan. Thank you. Your message made me smile over all the "Can't Do Mortals" that I know and how they are punishing themselves. I will use your advice on them, perhaps they will listen, recognize they can do all things through Christ and be helped. Blessings to you.

  88. That is very helpful, focusing on what is. Trank you!

  89. Wow- this hits the nail right on the head as the expression goes - thank you Evan for this really lifting daily lift

  90. Thank you

  91. Dear Evan, not only do I like your message, but I really like your delivery, as I always do. Thank you so very much for our "Can do" inspiration for today.

  92. Another GREAT one, Evan! Thank you---right on the mark.....

  93. Yeah!!!!! THIS IS SIMPLY WONDERFUL....
    THANKYOU SO MUCH

  94. Exactly what I needed for today. So simple; yet so true. I really enjoyed this lift!

  95. Love that CAN DO immortal!! There are definitely too many times in a day when I say that I can't do something, and this simple phrase can replace that "can't do" attitude!!! Thanks so much for showing the simplicity of it all!!!

  96. There is a companion verse in the Bible that I like to think of in connection with "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." It is from Job (23:14) "For he (God) performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him." These angel thoughts have helped me many times when I thought I couldn't...but I could! (=

  97. May I add, thank you to all who commented especially #64 for the reference to the October 16,Sentinel article. And of course many thanks to the Daily Lift team. (=

  98. F. Joy - New York City - 10/9/2012

    I was once told: We're not trying to see mortal man as the image and likeness of God; we're trying to see the image and likeness of God instead of mortal man. Doesn't that make our goal in healing clear?

  99. Love the smooth conclusion with just the one voice--very seamless, thank you!

    Love this Evan, must admit to having thought about a few things I don't do anymore...for one reason or another. I love the idea of supplanting that limited thought with the idea that I am a can do immortal! Isn't that grand to contemplate all day! Your messages are always delivered with a smile we can feel! Thank you for all your good work and support of the cause of Christian Science. I love also that #63, Tobias Weismann is praying for the people that care for him...not just for himself...what a steadfast warrior he is! God Bless....

  100. Thamk you Evan...........

  101. Thanks, Evan. This is so helpful.
    Before attending my Christian Science Association meeting, many "can't do" thoughts were stirring. I realized that this was a temptation to miss a seminar that would be a blessing for a long time to come. The information was a real wake-up call and a situation at home was much improved when I returned. So glad that our immortal status never varies. And thanks to all responders for strengthening this truth.

  102. Thank you for this inspirational lift.Knowing we "Can Do" and why (through Him) frees us from human limitations.We must keep our "knowing going".

  103. I love the thought of thinking about all I can do and all the good in my day. Thank you for this helpful reminder.

  104. It is so nice to see the number of responses you have, all with a thankul acknowledgement.
    This was excellent as I sort of have been dealing with a negative outlook. Now, I am free and ready to continue my love through Christ's works. Thanks!

  105. THANK YOU EVAN,
    JUST WHAT HAPPENED TO ME TODAY. I WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH SOME IMPORTANT TASKS THAT NEEDED DONE AND I FEEL GREAT! VHC I CAN AND I DID!

  106. THANKS EVAN, I CAN AND I DID! HAD SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO TODAY AND I DID IT ALL., AND I FEEL GREAT! I NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THE MORTAL SELF AND BE FREE TO EXPRESS JOY AND ACCOMPLISHMENT

  107. Thank you, Evan. What a difference dedication to such an outlook would make in our lives, communities and the world! I said "dedication", because I believe in CAN DO, but find myself falling into some "can'ts" Wish my PC would let me use extra tiny letters to say "can't do" for this. This Lift reduces the size of "can't" in how they fit in our thought and conversation and will help me stay alert to negative concepts of myself. Besides avoiding saying "can't", it's more important to resist every negative claim. Saying or thinking "I can't" is accepting error, limitation, and lack of needed blessing. I wonder if some "I can'ts" begin with convenience, to avoid taking on a task we've been asked to do that requires more time than we want to commit. Accepting and using inability lets in convenience's cousin, known as physical inability. Then we can't figure where this error came from. It's better to refuse a task for valid reasons than to pull an easy "can't" excuse. Valid reasons do exist to not take on added tasks, but sometimes maybe we need to metaphysically handle negative reasons we won't take on what is needed. This gives me much to ponder, even if it isn't me, but others who "can't". I can treat the reasons that would make it hard to fulfill family, Church, school, employment, organizations, or community and government needs.

    Thanks to all wonderful responses above! I'm thankful for all achievements because of this Lift!!

  108. Thank you all. I appreciate your kind comments and helpful contributions. You are a CAN DO group of thinkers and doers!

  109. I moved to Naples, FL a few months ago and was shocked to meet so many "Can't do mortals". I had moved from a ski town in Utah. When I retired there I called the senior citizens clubhouse and got the message that "There is fresh powder on the mountains today. Call back some other day" I was delighted that all the 80 year olds were skiing fresh powder. So now when someone sounds like a can't do mortal here in Florida I will think of skiing fresh powder and being a "Can do" immortal.
    Thanks for your wonderful message.

  110. So true. Thank you. I needed to hear this today.

  111. Thank-you for the wonderful ideas! I'll certainly be using them. A "Can Do Immortal" with its Christly perfection is the 'new normal' .......

  112. Thank you Evan for this wonderful Lift!

  113. Thank you for the helpful thoughts, Evan!

  114. So fabulous and simple. Thank you!

  115. Thanks, Evan! I had a lot of MUST DOs today, and your lift was perfect, reminding me that with Christ I can do all that's really needed.

  116. Great, Evan, that is a wonderful wake up call from the mesmerism of "can't" to can. My Practitioner used to say so many times. "I have, I can, I am able." Thank you for the reminder.

  117. Thanks

  118. This is what came to me, as we journey from false belief (can't-do, mortal) to spiritual understanding (can-do, immortal):

    From S & H w Key to the Scriptures,

    As the children of Israel were guided triumphantly through the Red Sea, the dark ebbing and flowing tides of human fear, — as they were led through the wilderness, walking wearily through the great desert of human hopes, and anticipating the promised joy, — so shall the spiritual idea guide all right desires in their passage from sense to Soul, from a material sense of existence to the spiritual, up to the glory prepared for them who love God.

    Jesus marked out the way, and Mrs Eddy followed, and so we press on, too.…we follow our Leader.…

    Thank you Evan and the DL community

    A subsequent posting:

    ..…just like the man at the pool of Bethesda, the man was focused on what he couldn't do (cant-do mortal) based on material observation of the material circumstances before him, but the Christ inspired him to improve his view through the Spirit, and allowed him to "put on the new man," the can-do immortal, and could walk away altogether from "the temporal débris."

  119. Wow! Look at the number of comments today. This message is very needed by all including me. I am feeling sluggish and guess what? It is all in my thought. So thank you for this uplift today. I want to be a can do and not a can't do. I sprained my ankle last week and I am recovering quickly. Having this little injury showed me the love of neighbors and friends who helped me the first few days and showed me God's care for me through them. I am staying positive and not succumbing to negativity, accepting whatever lessons I can glean. And I feel grateful for this beautiful fall day and the joy of the simple act of walking. Thank you Evan for the uplift and to all the responders, I will hope to read.

  120. Thank you so much Evan.

  121. I love the pictures of all the CAN DOs that listened in today :-))

  122. Thanks so much Evan. I know it is the Christ that strengthens me. And I haver been surprised by what I can do! Or have done. Never had a term for it----I am a "can do immortal." Love this thought! Ann Botts

  123. Maybe I listened to your Lift a day late, but for me it was perfect timing :) God leads us to our every need at just the right time, thank you for this simple practical Lift which has lifted me up.

  124. Thank you Evan, clearly we are all " Can do immortals"!!!! I am still smiling and chuckling over this. The truth really is this profound and simple.
    Thank you also to each of you who wrote in .... our spiritual family :0)

  125. Kudos to #52, "I can is the son of I AM." that opens the door to what "you" are actually "doing", more like being the actor and GOD is the doer.
