8/30: Visionary lives and prayers

  1. I love hearing Chet talk, he really inspires me.

  2. Elisabeth Groß, Germany, Munich

    Thank you so much Chet for your wonderful massage for me. This day my thoughts will be changed in a good direction and I'll be hold them. Thank you very much.

    Elisabeth Groß, CS

  3. Thank you Chet! I so appreciate the insight you have in your Daily Lifts.

  4. Thank you, Chet.

    Just what I needed.

    TWLS,

  5. Thank you Chet for this very astute reminder of how we ought to count our blessings. We've been getting lots of rain of late,but I've still been able to slip in some hours of gardening...how blessed am I, to be ABLE to work.. with millions of souls struggling to even scratch up a meal or find a place to lay down at day's end. It's very humbling, and makes me wonder about God's plan for us all. My heart goes out to the folk in trouble, across the earth. Thank you for these Daily Lifts, they enrich my life.

  6. Wow! This goes far beyond opening a door. It opens a theatre! Your thoughts, so visionary and reflective of God, are remarkable. God is the architect for Christianity, for our lives. Thank you for the simple way in which you have brought this thought to me.

    Jim

  7. Thank you for your great lift. It is so important to be remembered "to build a cathedral" instead of doing anything else. Thank you so much.

  8. “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matt.6:33
    There's no two ways about it: if we want to progress we need to check our motives, to stay focus on understanding more of God’s order, God’s greatness.
    When we are seeking God's kingdom and focus on the Great Architect's perfect plan, only then can we begin to look forward in our lives and see our own goal coming to life.
    ESPAÑOL
    “Buscad primero el reino de Dios y su justicia, y todas estas cosas os serán añadidas” Mateo 6:33
    No importa como se lo mire: si queremos progresar necesitamos revisar nuestros motivos, enfocarnos en comprender más del orden de Dios, de la grandeza de Dios.
    Cuando buscamos el reino de Dios y nos enfocamos en el plan perfecto del Gran Arquitecto, solo entonces podemos comenzar a mirar hacia adelante en nuestras vidas y ver que nuestra meta ya sale a la luz.

  9. I sometimes need to pause and ask myself what I am really doing when I lapse into believing that my prayers can somehow change my body. Thank you for showing me that we are all actually building our own cathedrals when we work to get a better understanding of our relationship to God and don't get tricked into believing that we are working to heal(change) a material condition.

  10. Wouah! Nothing else to say! Thaaaaannnnnkkkkkkk you sooooooo muuuuuchhhhhh! A great reminder of where the real focus of life should be.

  11. Great Chet ,, so good to start off the morning with my Daily Lifts..

  12. After listening to this healing Lift, I stopped for a few moments and asked me, Di, what are you thoughtfully building? So many angel thoughts poured in but the one I cherish the most is my deep desire to live, be and hold the correct view of not only me but all!

  13. I am so grateful for this lift, which has answered a desire I had this morning to refocus my motives and efforts in daily life. There aren't millions of goals any more than there are millions of minds. Thank you for bringing out so clearly our need to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness as our one and only goal, our one and only motive. We will find ourselves accomplishing so much more than we otherwise could, whatever our activity.

  14. Thank you dear Chet. Your message is just what I needed today.

  15. thank you so much chet.I really needed just those words at just this moment! See,God IS always with us.love and peace to all

  16. ARN ~ Middlewich -8/30/12

    just remember how our great friend and builder, Neil A. never doubted that men should be able to
    reach the Moon and land there; he was rewarded by being the first man from Earth to set foot there
    and report back to the rest of us; now we have Mars in our mental sights!! GO GO Consistently!!
    We look OUT from Perfection always and ever!!

  17. Thank you for your wonderfully uplifting message. It never fails to arrest (refocus) my thought when I
    think of the disciples when they were out fishing and caught nothing and Jesus told them to "cast into
    the deep and ye shall find". They were not instructed to go to another lake or fish elsewhere to find. There is of course so much more to the story but the change in their vision changed their circumstances;
    as when on another occasion Jesus told them they would be made "fishers of men".

  18. Thank you.

  19. ...and we all know who the cornerstone of this cathedrale is... - thank you so much, Chet, for your thought-transforming parable! I equally love those closing credits so sincerely recited by this little one's firm voice :) To all of you - the entire "Daily Lift"-family, if I may say so - who make the Daily Lift coming into our houses every morning, a heartfelt THANKS A LOT :)

  20. Thank you, Chet, for another great lift! You always give truly inspiring ideas. I love the example story: seeing our work in the highest (spiritual) light.

  21. Beautiful!!!! The way to go!! Many Brazilian thanks and greetings from Rio!! ;-)

  22. Thanks for this great reminder - applies to all aspects of life: church, business, family, etc. Can be a daily prayer. Relates to Section IV of this week's Lesson, I think.

  23. Jesus tells us that it is letting go of, not clinging to, what we may think is limited and real life that brings the Son of man, the kingdom of God, good. (Luke 17; 31). From the high office as our Shepherd, Christ Jesus was not tempted by God to side with error even that suggestion which falsely promises all treasure in easy ignorance of God. (Luke 4 and Matthew 4.) Even the beasts are harmless, harmonious angels in this restored sinless garden or kingdom of God. (Mark 1;13.)

  24. Yes Chet You have certainly caused me to sit up and re examine Purpose and motiveation in this quest for healing and a better life. Is it just to feel physically well ,and get materially rich ?
    Yes indeed ,motives ,intent must be reviewed bearing in mind Mrs Eddy's statement of Scientific fact " Right motives give pinions to thought and strength and freedom to speech and action ......." Thank you Chet .

  25. Thank you now I can go about my day and keep in mind ' What am I doing' and then have a better day. Many thanks to you and all the Lifters.

  26. So comforting.
    Wonderfully presented.
    Wow listening Chet.
    Really big thanks.

    Susan

  27. I find this a lift which really inspires to action - both mentally and practically - many thanks.

    Thanks also to you, Jilly (No.16) for the thought that the disciples weren't being told to go to other lakes or elsewhere to find their fish, but just to realize the spiritual reality which was providing them with their needs right where they were.

    So we don't have to do anything else but find the spiritual supply which is already present with us in order to build our cathedrals. God is providing it, we just have to accept it, and use it. We must build this cathedral stone by stone or brick by brick, carefully, and lovingly, until the completion of its magnificent edifice. It should be wonderful to see it growing day by day. "Know ye not that ye are the temple of the holy ghost, and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you". God, Spirit, does the work for us, and we just have to follow His directions. (Should be easier than trying to follow the directions on some new technological devices!!)

  28. Thank you ,Chet ! What an inspiring axample story ! I'm going to spread it around, Chet !

  29. I am a high school English teacher. Just yesterday, my Year Seven class was studying a poem about a big man who served in his church. His handshake was like a "vice" but he was a gentle person really. The last line indicates that he helped to " build a cathedral" in the heart of the poet. My students are learning the meaning of metaphoric language so they enjoyed this image. Thank you to all those sincere Christian Scientists who are building cathedrals in the hearts of others, too. Special thanks to you, Chet.

  30. So, so grateful for the ideas behind this awesome Lift. How practical they can be when put in to practice in our daily experience. Thank you so much!

  31. Thanks, Chet, for a great daily lift. When we're able to keep in mind that our true reason for being is to express or glorify God, then each step we take, each move we make, will be part of an overall beautiful scene, which when viewed collectively in the right light or view, will further reveal our Father's overall plan. This grand view could indeed amount to a cathedral that reaches upward and outward in a divine embrace.

  32. Wonder filled message . . . Helps us see the world through a new lens . . .thank you.

  33. Thank you Chet and thanks to all the comments that are being shared and bring new visions of all the different aspects of our "cathedrals". I will keep it in mind today: I am building a cathedral, not just answering a letter, calculating costs, dealing with customers... Yes! I am building cathedrals every day. So comforting to know that God is the Great Architect of our lives. Thanks, thanks, thanks.

  34. Many thanks Chet for reminding us of these very precious words from the Sermon on the Mount. " Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Allelu, alleluia!" (Christian Science Hymnal Supplement #455). (Matt 6:33). O may we be still and seek Him,/ Seek with consecration whole,/ Listening thus to hear the message,/ Far from sense and hid in Soul). (Christian Science Hymnal #237).

  35. Thanks Chet,
    Thanks for the remknder to keep thought open to "the Divine picture", to be still, to pause, to reflect! Great lift, thanks!

  36. Thank you Chet, so good to look at things from a different perspective :)

  37. nuestra visión tiene que ir más allá de lo humano sino como dice Eddy: "Nunca las elevaremos a vidas grandes y nobles" porque nada hay en la materia que la pueda elevar sino confundir somos confundidos con mucha frecuencia por ejemplo: los motivos que nos hacen obrar no siempre son santos y del esfuerzo para aclararlos depende en gran medida el progreso, por eso la necesidad de estar embuidos de la presencia divina para saber discernir los pensamientos y los motivos que nos mueven a actuar.

    Gracias por destacar la importancia de que nuestra historia esté fundamentada en nuestra relación con Dios en seguir su mandato, alguien me dijo eso es fatalismo, NO porque fatalismo es inercia someterse al azar, en cambio aceptar el gobierno divino es primeramente esfuerzo, y después comprensión para llegar a entender que el único camino es el de la Verdad que da vida, porque se cimenta en Amor, y no es fácil porque nos impele a cambiar totalmente nuestros conceptos de lo que es bueno y verdadero y que es intranferible a otro pensar y obrar que no sea espiritual.

    Muchas gracias, Familia

  38. Building a cathedral for the glory and praise of God! Thank you, Chet -- this is a mighty Lift today.

  39. Love your reminder. We must remember the "why" of what we are doing and not get mired in the mud of the human perspective but lift our thought to the greater purpose. "To be about our Father's business".

  40. Lovely... thank you!

  41. I am often the one just cutting stones, but this Lift reminds me that I need to see the bigger picture in all aspects of life. What a wonderful inspiration! Thank you Chet and all those who share and work to make the Daily Lift happen each and every day. It is a treasure.

  42. Thanks Chet! I love this message today. I think that sometimes we seem to be looking at the smaller picture but this lift is a perfect reminder to look out from the mountain to see the grand picture of God's universe peopled with Her loving ideas living in perfect harmony and expressing the perfection which we all reflect. Reality is spiritual and expresses grand ideas - not a mortal picture show where we seem to be an actor playing a mortal part.
    Thanks so much!

  43. Chet,
    Thanks so much for giving us the inspiration to seek higher goals and work towards them. And as I follow this I know that "Green pastures are before me, Which yet I have not seen; Bright skies will soon be o'er me, Where darkest clouds have been. My hope I cannot measure, My path n life is free; My Father has my treasure, And He will walk with me." (Hymn 148, 3rd verse) Our Father is right beside us giving us guidance and assuring our success as we work to build our cathedrals.

  44. Thank you so much for this lift, Chet! It really turned my thought around this morning! It made me think that we are all living stones of God's grand cathedral :-)

  45. I really needed to hear this today. Thank you, Chet!

  46. A friend who was a guidance counselor would say: "Perception is reality." Flip Wilson, AKA Geraldine, said, "What you see is what you get." And Proverbs, "as he thinketh in his heart, so is he." Good idea to keep that high goal always in mind, aiming for it and anticipating its achievement.

  47. Oh how I needed your "Lift" today. Thank you so much. I need to focus on what is true and not on all that other stuff.

  48. I am going to listen to this again. Wonderful lesson. Thank you.

  49. Thank you Chet this is what I needed

  50. Yes! Just what I needed, too! Thank you Chet!

  51. O so helpful - the perspective changes completely when we look out from God not up to God (which is still miles better than looking elsewhere!). Is everyone signed up for the TMC Youth emails? Chet's mini-lecture is still brilliantly clear in thought and it's been several days : )
    I am grateful for all these gifts, for making it so easy to "pay them forward".

  52. I am focusing on the "Cathedral" today and not the stones! Thank you, Chet!

  53. Chet, I am sitting in my cathedral praising God. And wishing I could hug and plant a kiss on that darling little child who spoke at the end if your lift! What a precious voice .

  54. Reading through everyone's inspiration is like seeing MORE of the cathedral come into view! It really is inspiring how, for each one of us, the Christ is always lifting up our vision, helping us see the bigger picture - the SPIRITUAL VIEW of life that changes everything. Mary Baker Eddy writes that "We are all sculptors, moulding and chiseling THOUGHT..." on p. 248 of Science and Health. When we see our lives and prayers in this light, we truly become CATHEDRAL BUILDERS! Thank you all so much!

  55. Thank you Chet, for reminding me to keep the highest goal in thought!. Thank you too, Elena #3, Darlyne #9 and Lori#43 for your comments. This is what I'm holding on to today.

  56. A great perspective. Thank you Chet.

  57. Perfect! Thank you so much!

  58. Upward and onward.
    Thanks so much, Chet!

  59. Thanks, Chet, for "Visionary lives and prayers... 'I am building a cathedral'... get a glimpse of the grander idea... the power of Spirit, God... it's no small time construction project... see a beautiful cathedral taking shape." In Science and Health, Mrs. Eddy shares a definition of church that includes, "The structure of Truth and Love. Whatever proceeds from and rests upon Principle... " (this is from memory...hope it's close enough to make my point here...) As I was inspired to consider the "temple" of my body/person to be a growing sense of "church," I'm inspired by this Lift to build my growing sense of "church" into a "cathedral." I love this grander view. Thanks again, Chet.

  60. Thanks for such a clear, inspired lift -- one that helps us put beautiful, soaring Christian metaphysics into real practice in daily life.

  61. In our sales department at work, we're learning to ask ourselves before each sales call, "What is the purpose of this call?" This lift reminds me to ask what is the spiritual purpose behind each thought and action, whether it's expressing the one Mind when quoting customer projects or unselfish love when planning our church's upcoming lecture venue. The right perspective makes everything clear! Thanks, Chet!

  62. Thank you. I needed this today.

  63. Super thank you!

  64. Thank you.

  65. Thank you Chet. All work done today will be with the higher goal of seeing God's perfection in everything and everyone, knowing that we all dwell in God's kingdom.

  66. Wonderful, Chet! Something came to mind from the Bible where Jesus says, to paraphrase, ...."There will be all kinds of earth changes and troubles, but when these things come, Look Up, for the kingdom of heaven draweth nigh." And Mrs. Eddy says almost the same thing on p. 96 of Science and Health: "This material world is even now becoming the arena of conflicting forces.......As material knowledge diminishes and spiritual understanding increases, real objects will be apprehended mentally instead of materially." Let's all keep Looking Up to see the true reality of what we are building!

  67. Oh Chet, such a wonderful lift--truly uplifting! And we all do it, like the first two builders. We go through the motions of placing one stone at a time, with effort, tediously, somewhat mindlessly, lacking the love and creativity that is ever present. But to realize we are building cathedrals ushers in the joy and exhilaration when working under God's guidance. Cathedrals. We can rejoice with this idea! Such a labor of love it is when realizing the kingdom of God already is here and we are living it. Your lift artfully and gently woke us up more to Truth. Thanks so much for that!

  68. This daily lift is a burden lifter. Let's do it!

  69. Thank you Chet!
    And see how this Daily Lift is already lifting us up to realize
    what a good and holy purpose we all have!
    It's not little -- it's big!

  70. At a Wednesday meeting at our local Christian Science church last night, a congregant spoke up and emphasized the importance of remaining true to God's will. Listening intently for His call and willingly obeying it.

    Thinking of Jesus's acts, "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me." --John 5:30.

    I'm thinking further how the Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, considered "purpose" in her work or employment as this Lift speaks to.

    In her article "Pond and Purpose" (included in writings by her in a book "Miscellaneous Writings" pp 206-7), in speaking to what she refers to as the "lessons of love", she goes on to say,
    "Learn its (i.e., 'lessons of love') purpose; and in hope and faith, where heart meets heart reciprocally blest, drink with me the living waters of the spirit of my life-purpose,--to impress humanity with the genuine recognition of practical, operative Christian Science."

    How can I practice this to-day? (a rhetorical question!)

  71. Chet, a beautiful and inspirational perspective, thank you for sharing this gift.

  72. I listened to the message over and over again and took notes. We really need to focus on our goal in everything we do. Most inspiring. What a call to action for all of us! What am I really doing here?
    Thanks Chet

  73. How timely, thanks Chet!

  74. I have heard a smilar analogy related to the taxi cab driver. One driver went home grumbling each night about all the people who were demanding, ungrateful, and even rude which included the people he was delivering as well as other drivers. The second driver went home whistling a merry tune and greeted his family with a twinkle in his eye. He had a great day meeting such a diversity of people, having fascinating discussions, and witnessing the many times when other drivers were polite to each other. Thank you for this great reminder of starting from the right basis...Principle.and Love.

  75. Thanks for the call to a better focus!!

  76. Thank you. I have heard this story before, but never looked at it as a way to transform my own perspective on my job and daily work. I appreciate the insight.

  77. Great timing. I did a short post on Visionaries on Tuesday. Wednesday morning two "visionaries" came to my studio for promotional photos. Last evening I gave a testimony on visionaries and today a couple of friends sent me Chet's link. So inspiring to be reminded that my highest calling is to do the work of my Father/ Mother God and daily be about my Father's business.

  78. An awesome lift! Thank you.

  79. When I first came into C/S, the very first thought I had was wow! Now I can heal my body and live a better non-sick life. WAS I ever wrong with that attitude. Now my thoughts are to reflect God's healing, loving power which brings others to ask, "how come you're always happy, no matter what. Which in turn, upon my answering that I pray the way C/S teaches me, they want to know more about it.

  80. Thank you Chet, wow,

  81. This reminded me of the story from RIDE THE WILD HORSES, by J.W. Hamilton. It tells about our perspective of how we see things or face things.When the storm strikes a rooster, he folds up,wraps his wings about him , endures in fear and droops to the dreary end. When the storm strikes the eagle, he spreads his wings and with confidence makes the winds lift him and carry him above the storm. We can employ or we can endure. Jesus used every opportunity to do God's will and he knew his purpose and it provided Him with a force by which he lifted men to the very heights of God. Thanks Chet

  82. Thank you so much, Chet, for this inspiring Lift. I couldn't help being reminded of an article by Susan Els (in the Christian Science Sentinel of 20 July 2009) entitled "What the cathedral says to the garden". We all need to be reminded that whether we're building a cathedral for the city or a garden for our home, we are missing something unless our work is informed by the spiritual vision that sees one Mind, God, as the Creator of all. I've been working to hold to that thought recently in my own creative endeavours, and your Lift today emphasised to me once more how important that spiritual vision is.

  83. Chet, Thanks for the great lift. What a wonderful message and reminder. I am sharing it with some college students.

  84. Beautiful!!!!

  85. While getting ready this morning I contemplated a "grandeur view" while singing "Oh Life That Maketh All Things New" (my favorite version is from a borrowed CD by The Newsong Group titled "Grace Notes"); my phone rang; on the other end was the answer to nearly 3 years of trial bore without the guidance of my dad but with the guidance of great wisdom and Love from many angels who represent our Father, Mother, God. We don't always know why we experience what we do, but God's plan is Good and grandeur than we can imagine. How blessed we All are to be able to acknowledge the cathedral when we look, it's ours for the knowing. Thank you for the imagery in this Daily Lift. My dad was a mason and a carpenter. He had the "cathedral perspective"! Thank you God for all your angels in their multifarious forms and for the Peace, progress and light that is in every day and moment.

    "O Life that maketh all things new,
    the blooming earth, our thoughts within,
    our pilgrim feet wet with thy dew, in gladness hither turn again.
    From hand to hand the greeting flows, from eye to eye the signals run,
    from heart to heart the bright hope glows;
    the seekers of the light are one: one in the freedom of the truth, one in the joy of paths untrod,
    one in the soul's perennial youth, one in the larger thought of God;
    the freer step, the fuller breath, the wide horizon's grander view,
    the sense of life that knows no death,
    the Life that maketh all things new."
    ~Samuel Longfellow 1874

  86. Wow - this is great! It applies to anything and everything we do - big and small. Even cathedrals have tiny steps to make them great. Thank you!!

  87. Very encouraging! I'll be thinking about what kind of "cathedral' I'M building today.

  88. Amen, Chester !! Well Said !!

  89. Thank you for the reminder - God, divine Love, is bigger & more beautiful than the mortal eye sees. Awesome Turth!

  90. I thank you so much Chet for the very interesting and helpful message.

  91. Such great thoughts, thank you for sharing and helping us to daily focus on expressing God's work in action.

  92. Thanks, Chet, for improving my perspective, which IS my day.

  93. Thank you, Chet (see below)! You've seen a deeper meaning to each minute & hours of our lives, moments spent just getting things done for the day. Doing dishes, picking up clothes & clutter, dusting, groceries, bill paying, getting the mail or paper, etc. WOW! What a vision you've given me! Focusing on the higher picture is awesome,yet truly the most basic thing I should see. It seemed right to apply truths to details of everyday tasks, when needed. When needed? This Lift increases the vision to do metaphysical work, to turn to higher goals that these tasks help me achieve. I'm building a cathedral to Everlasting Life, one to Perfection, paving a Highway through (not to) Heaven. For this Lift, to say thank you, Chet, and for all other Lift lecturers, for which I've been most grateful, I'm actually furnishing a Room of Gratitude, one that expands daily, and reaches the sky. This Lift makes me more aware than ever before, how significant every moment is, and how important my place in the universe of divine Mind is. The Lift family makes me aware I'm not alone in my work, that the walls of "my" cathedral reach around the world, so even in the most up-to-now seemingly mundane work, I am serving Family. Temple: 1 Cor.3:16. Church- Webster: "A body of Christian believers". I'm feeding the Body, our Body, with every deed & thought. Let it not be junk food! Got work to do, the love I feel just expanded my vision of this Healing Cathedral. My eye vision improved too! #All, Thanks.

  94. I appreciate this thought also from Eph 2:22..."Ye....are builded together for an habitation of God"...

  95. Your metaphor of building the cathedral, reminded me of one of my favorite books - Bill Shore's - The Cathedral Within. You mentioned we must remember the Great Architect, that continuously inspires, guides and moves us to see the bigger picture - the grander view - the relentless aspiration for the beauty of goodness. This abiliity to see the Divine view of our work transforms our lives into usefull employment of all our God given talents, so that the Cathedral of life we are building reflects the wonders the Great Architect provides for all of us to know. Thanks you Chet, for the inspiration and reflection your Lift today provided me.

  96. One of the BEST Chet, Thank you!

  97. Thanks again Chet. You put it so simply and yet it is so profound as to last a lifetime.
    Dave

  98. Thanks for ideas shared !!!
    Evelin

  99. To Daily lift team, I would like to thank the option of to put the voice of child at the end - it's amazing the idea of purity - sweetness and innocence! It touched my heart! Thank you

  100. Thank you so much Chet for this wonderful lift which destroys the burden of matter-based thought! And thank you to all the commentators that added so many positive, enriching ideas. They will definitely add much joy, hope and strength to my days. "To those leaning on the sustaining infinite today is big with blessings!"

  101. It helps to see the grand view. Thank you.

  102. Two men looked out of prison bars. One saw mud and the other
    saw stars.

  103. Thank you so much. That is just what I need for so many areas today. God is so great.

  104. Wonderful similitude! We must look at everything the right way. Thanks alot Chet.

  105. Inspirational. Thoughtful. Profound. Mrs. Eddy, on the page before the contents page in Science and Health, quotes Shakespeare's "There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." And, as Chet pointed out, it makes all the difference in how the three workers looked at their similar tasks. The first two replies were accurate but mundane. The third looked past the "trees" and saw the whole "forest." His thinking lifted him to an entirely different perspective. So can ours.
    Thank you Chet, and thanks to the BofL and the Daily Lift team for providing these daily gifts.

  106. Yhank you, Chet! May we all build cathedrals in our own lives.

  107. Thanks Chet for this great Daliy Lift! It was somethinng I need to hear today! So Thank you Chet!

  108. Thank you so much for the beautiful ideas that emerge daily from the contributors. I just started
    "Daily Lift" emails and it is so helpful to me and others.

  109. To be reminded about the Grander view is most appreciated. Thank you. I love these Daily Lifts they are like Angel thoughts coming to us.

  110. I love this idea! Thank you so much for sharing it, Chet!

  111. Thank you so much for this Daily Lift, it's like Angel thoughts coming to us!

  112. Dear Chet,

    What a beautiful message you have reminded us! Your words are very powerful and can help us all lift our joy in the work we do. It is not just how we do things but what we aim at is so important. You have surely shown it in the work you have been doing.

  113. Thank you Chet, wonderful.

  114. I am an Artist and WOW! The visual was spectacular and the spiritual impact even more! THANK YOU!

  115. Breathtaking!

  116. I thank God for meeting a church like the mother church Christian Science. Your daily lift have lifted me up since I subscribed to it this year, 2012.
    God will lift all the lecturers up spiritually so that they will impact positively as they are presently doing to all their students every body that come across the scientific teaching.

  117. Mike Holmes, a well known Canadian builder, has just been named one of the top ten names on the Forbes List of most trusted people. When he finds shoddy unsafe building conditions, he says, "How could they do this to a family? Tear it all down!" and "Build it right the first time."
    Mike Holmes has built a flood resistant home in New Orleans, rebuilt a safe "green" home in Toronto, and completed a major addition to an earthquake home in California. Usually he fixes deficiencies in a house, rarely has to rebuild a whole house. Mike listens carefully to the housing needs of a family, and meets those needs to perfection. His answer to this question might be, "Doing it right!", but he is also improving building standards and practices in North America and inspiring others in the world to do the same.

  118. What a great amount of love and sweetness I hear in voice of the child at the end. I pray to be more like a little child.

  119. Sincere gratitude Chet, for this peaceful message so full of the God's promise of grace in each daily activity.

  120. Thank you SO much. It all starts with gratitude.

  121. This was such an amazing lift Chet. Your words flowed so perfectly, each thought expressed exactly in order. Thank you.

  122. These Daily Lifts are really fantastic. And this one is typical of that. Thank you Chet!

  123. Beautiful lift! Divine views transforming our lives...wow wow wow!

  124. YES!!! Thank you, a needed daily lift for myself and all.

  125. So beautiful, many thanks.

  126. Thank you for the cathedral, Chet. The call to rise from earth.

  127. Beautiful! When we remain focused on the grand idea, God's perfect plan, we avoid the pitfalls which would void our efforts or those of others around us, and the result is inspiration, beauty, grandeur, order. A perfect cathedral instead of a tower of Babel.

  128. Building a cathedral, that really lifted the idea of what we do with our prayers into a whole new realm. And the comments come from all the four corners of the world.

  129. Great lift Chet, very timely for me! Thankyou.

  130. Step back and ask what our purpose really is, what's really important and real, what we're really all about. Amen. Thanks Chet and everyone for sharing.

  131. great message, they all are, always...and that's a real nice bass, too..
