6/13: Watching God work

6/13: Watching God work

  1. Just the reminder that I needed. Thank you so very much. I love all of the Daily Lifts!

  2. Thank you for this "Back to Basics" reminder; the simplicity of it all! Let go and let God. It's all so true when we realize we alone can't solve our own problems, nor those of others.

  3. A lovely reminder to not only be still, but that we are
    held in HIS arms all the while. Thank you Brian.

  4. Jesus found strength in humility. He never took credit for what he did but he honored God in all he did. http://bible.cc/john/5-20.htm He taught us to be still and watch God work in our lives. He taught us that if we accept this fact we too can do what he did, and better yet. http://bible.cc/john/14-10.htm,
    I remember the strong point when I took Class Instruction in Christian Science, “Get Elena out of the way and watch God act in your life.” It’s not an easy task to let go of the control, but when I did it wonderful things took place in my life.
    It was a childlike feeling of just letting God do the work and trust in His Fatherly care.
    ESPAÑOL: Jesús halló fuerza en la humildad. Nunca se dió crédito a sí mísmo por lo que hizo sino que honraba a Dios en todo. http://bibliaparalela.com/john/5-20.htm El nos enseñó a quedarnos callados y ver a Dios obrar en nuestras vidas. Nos enseñó que si aceptamos este hecho nosotros también podemos hacer lo que él hizo, y mejor aún. http://bibliaparalela.com/john/14-10.htm
    Recuerdo el punto fuerte cuando tomé Instrucción en Clase en la Ciencia Cristiana, “Quita a Elena del medio y observa como Dios actúa en tu vida.” No es cosa fácil largar el control, pero cuando lo hice sucedieron cosas maravillosas.
    Fue una sensación de niño, de dejar que Dios obre y confiar en Su cuidado paternal.

  5. Brian, thanks! I just love those words of Christ Jesus from John's Gospel - especially that reassurance that "the Father loves the Son, and shows him all the things that He himself does". What a wonderful, strengthening promise for us all!

  6. Thank you Brian for that inspiring lift. Yes, "Because divine Love is always present and active, the primary wisdom is to 'be still' and then watch carefully to follow divine Love, leading us to the solution." "To Thy wisdom I resign,/ And would mold my will to Thine." (Christian Science Hymnal #46)

  7. Thank you Brian for your daily lift, very useful and relevant to looking for a job! The message is straightforward and so too is the requirement of us, to be child like, to listen and trust. I have certainly been active in attacking the problem. I'll endeavour to be still, take self out of the equation and acknowledge God's presence and work (supply) for all his children.

  8. Thank you. I can apply this to my work for church.

  9. THANKS A MILLION! VERY TOUCHING AND TRUE MESSAGE.

  10. Ja! God makes the whole universe work so why not also our little lives. Great Music Too!

  11. Thank you!
    I got a lot of ideas for next Wednesday.

  12. Oh! thank you.

  13. Thank you so much. Your message is just what I need when preparing for moving home.

  14. Dear Brian,

    Thank you for your spiritual imput. We are embraced in Love, always.
    "..leading us to the solution...." great ending to take with us for the day.

  15. Thank you Brian, and No 6 too for the hymn reference; it's a big one to grasp for me so I love the story of the little boy watching while fascinated by all he saw. Trusting in God's plan. It keeps our focus on the spiritual! The metaphysical inspiration in the Daily Lifts is truly challenging and invigorating! Thank you.

  16. Thank you Brian. A sweet story.

  17. This is just the image of "being still" that works--a naturally patient, joyful child expecting nothing but good. Thanks, Brian!

  18. thank you Brian, Just the healing message I needed this morning! I will be happy to bare wittness to God's, Love's Allness today!

  19. That was a good reminder to start the day, of just who IS doing the seeing, hearing, walking, talking, creating, connecting and healing, thoughout the day..Thank you Brian... and Happy beginning of the week to all the Lifters!
    It will be good to watch the Father, and "Great I AM" do His work of blessing all ! Love, Annie H.

  20. Thank you, and much appreciation; I was reminded of REFLECTION. Very helpful Thank you.

  21. Good morning,

    Listening and watching for what 'the father' is about, a wonderful reminder of just whom it is that we best witness and reflect. So it is as we 'rise up and walk' this day and every day, loving our Father's work and doing better with our work. And, watching the little and always growing children of the true Father, they with their willingness and good, now there is a key to knowing better, "Our Father, which art in heaven,...".

    Thx Brian, as always 'spot on' stuff.

  22. Being still and watchful always brings solutions. Thank you!

  23. Oh thank you! I just loved that illustration of a one year old watching at a construction site. Many a little one in my experience has been quieted and fascinated in this way. I am picturing all ages (Grampa included) at similar sites looking on with interest at the big trucks and equipment moving and accomplishing so much on a grand scale, then thinking how we can watch Mind work on an infinite scale. The humblest turn of soil with a trowel in the garden is still an expression of Mind at work. And we can prayerfully get to God's (Love's, Truth's, etc.) construction site to watch healing go on. Wow. Thanks.

  24. Thank you for that peaceful thought. I will be still - - - wait and watch, listen and know that "I AM God" and that I can't do a thing without Him.

  25. Thank you Brian! I can imagine how like your grandson in your arms, we can be so peaceful in His arms - your delivery comes with conviction- being a witness to this truths many many times - truly thank you, with much love!!

  26. Thank you for the reminder to be still and know that God is right were we are. Hymn 82 I find has been very helpful " God is working His purpose out" and with Hymn 46 " we put our times in God's hand s" we can't go wrong. Every thing has to be right.

  27. As your message unfolded, I immediately thought of being held, supported, carried in the arms of God's love as we all are. There is no need to think that we have a task before us that is too hard or too complicated. We watch and see that nothing is too hard for God and therefore nothing is too hard for us. Thank you!

  28. This is so joyfully received this a.m. What a great reminder to start the day and week with."Be still and know that I am God," thank you for this powerful and inspiring lift.

  29. Thanks Brian. "be still and listen" oh how I want to do that then obey the message from Truth.

  30. Also, it's important to recognize that your grandson, in his innocence and purity, had no judgment or criticism of the work going on but sheer fascination. He wasn't thinking, "That excavator SHOULD BE or SHOULDN'T BE doing this... That dump truck isn't unloading fast enough... I wonder if they really know what they're doing... I need to get in there and give them my opinions because I don't really trust what's going on... It probably won't get done when I think it should, etc, etc, etc."
    No, we need to completely trust that the master plan is being fulfilled, trust that "God IS WORKING HIS purpose out," (Christian Science Hymnal) and simply love observing all the good that is PRESENT NOW. Release all judgement, criticism and fear. Wow, what a difference!
    Gratitude and grace to all!

  31. Many thanks; have a good week, everyone

  32. Nunca antes mi vida se desarrolló con tanta armonía como cuando comencé a escuchar verdaderamente a Dios y dejar que Él obrara en mí, siendo llevada como de la mano por el Amor divino y lo que para lo humano sería asombroso para mi comenzó a ser natural y cada día cada hora mi apoyo en Dios se fue fortaleciendo de tal manera que ahora me dejo conducir sin poner nada de voluntad humano dejando que Dios lo haga porque además me he dado cuenta que cuando lo hacemos las soluciones son perfectas armoniosas y no implican injusticia ya que son resueltas por la sabiduría divina que no quita a uno para dar a otro sino que lo hace en el Bien de todos, podriamos decir con certeza que bendice a todos.

    Por ello estoy profundamente agradecida a Dios, y también a todo lo que la Ciencia Cristiana y todos sus mensajeros nos brindan día a día.

    Muchas gracias, Brian, THANK

  33. Thak you Brian for this great lift...it should guide many of us our study..it will me for sure.

  34. Thanks Brian for bringing back memories of when my daughter was young. She'd get up early in the morning and turn on the TV very low and watch the farming programs (all that was on that early). It's amazing how much she learned.

    We all need to be still and listen for God's direction - and then follow it!

  35. Thanks, Brian, just what I needed to hear today!

  36. Brian, I'm not spending much time in thanking you,,,, cause I'm listening to the solution.

  37. Thank you Brian. I'm so grateful for the inspiration and support these daily lifts provide.

  38. God's work is already done and in operation. We see it when we lift our thoughts to see the spiritual reality, which is always more satisfying, thorough, beautiful and delightful. Thank you for this lift; it is a wonderful reminder.

  39. Thank you so much Brian for a great lift!
    What a beautiful "picture" of calm and trust you painted in our thought. I have the feeling that by now your granson loves to go anywhere as long as he is in your arms. Kind of what happens to us when we are in His arms. Right?
    Very healing message.

    Thank you!

  40. Thank you, Brian! What a calm and loving tone in your voice and message! It reminds me of what Jesus said, "What I say unto you, I say unto all, Watch." To be childlike, to be still, and to know that our (man's) watching is what brings God's work into focus for us is truly "knowing the truth"! We also need to see that our focus, our sights, are always and only on God's works, to make sure that no subtle error creeps into thought that would tempt us to leave our "Watch"! Truly the way of Watching is straight and narrow, the way to see God's kingdom present on earth now!

  41. Thank you. As MBE said "Attempt nothing without God."

  42. "Be still." Just the thought that came to me earlier this morning! "Be still, and know that I am God." A gentle, but firm, command and worthwhile pursuing. Thanks for this affirmation!

  43. Thank you Brian, for this wonderful Lift. I think our early practice with our own children gave us courage to stand firmly with God. Looking back, what wonderful days of progress! And now it's grandchildren! How encouraging to know that by being still and standing guard over our thinking we can bear witness to God's perfection and completeness.
    Thank you Nathan, for the great music, and the BoL for coming right into our hearts and homes.

  44. "being still" Start with God, not the problem, I keep that posted in several places around my home. Love the Daily Lifts! Thanks for this one.

  45. A great analogy, which brings the reassurance that I need at this time. Thank you so much, Brian!

  46. Thank you so much, Brian! Just this morning I was thinking of Eddy's words: "Willingness to become as a little child and to leave the old for the new, renders thought receptive of the advanced idea." ("Science and Health", page 323) A very helpful and healing idea.

  47. Thank you Brian!
    "and a little child shall lead them"... a Bible promise.

  48. Simplicity itself and simply beautiful. Thank you, Brian.

  49. Thank you. A great reminder of who is "doing" - especially at the start of a busy week. Tempted to think I wasn't prepared enough for company and work projects ahead - I love the idea of watching God work it all out! In the past that idea didn't calm me, but the image of the child in arms trustingly watching in awe and the comments above - especially #26 Mary and #27 J, washed peace over me. I also loved how this Lift echoed for me the Psalms & Isaiah citations in this week's Bible Lesson which tell us to be aware of and to praise God for all His marvelous works. I am sitting here humbly aware of all the good unfolded over the weekend that allowed more time for preparations for the company, as well as quality family time before their arrival.I'm so grateful to have had this lovely reassurance that God Good is working in every detail of our life.

  50. Brian....thanks so much for the reminder that what ever challange arrises in your lives...Gos is ALWAYS working....in this time of such vast unemployment....GOD IS AT WORK...therefore WE ALL ARE AT WORK....gr8 reminder of my DIVINE EMPLOYMENT.....TY...!!!

  51. The picture of your grandson in your arms,watching...will stay with me today.Big thanks!!

  52. I walk with my 1 year old grandson and dog everyday by a construction area to watch the "twactos"(tractors). Yesterday I woke up with a shooting pain in my hip and couldn't walk without pain. Then the dog started limping for some unknown reason and I thought, 'What is going on here?'.

    I finally got very still and watched God's glory all around all day long. So it was really fun to wake up to your LIFT ~and of course both the dog and I are pain free and ready to head off to the construction site again this morning with a fresh spiritual way to watch it for sure. Thank you

  53. Construction sites are so fascinating to watch for young and old alike. Construction fences often have holes cut in them so passers by can stop and watch the work.
    This lift reminds me of Jesus words "...the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise." (John 5:19 English Standard Version).
    What a great invitation to stop at the construction site of the "eternal builder" and see what our heavenly Father is doing, and hear what our heavenly Mother is saying.
    We might come home to find our own "house" improved.
    Thanks Brian.

  54. This is a wonderful message for me today. When I finally took me out of the picture and let God do the work, those involved came together hamoniously and decided on a color and arrangement to make our Sunday School bright and cheery. Today the painters start and your message reminds us to go and watch the beauty of the one Mind come to fruition. This is a very timely Daily Lift for us. Thank you ever so much for your inspiration.

  55. Such a simple and beautiful image of it all. I learnt a lot from it.The metaphor was most appropriate. Thanks Brian

  56. "Be still and know that I am God." Always good advice! It applies to every human situation.
    Thanks-

  57. Wonderful, wonderful. Your lift reminds me of the words of a beloved Christian Scientist who said that when he first started in the practice of Christian Science healing he thought of himself as working with God. As he progressed he changed his thought to working for God. And finally his thought grew to the realization that he was WATCHING GOD WORK.

  58. Ottawa (Canada), Monday 13/6/11 11h10 EDT

    What a remarkably fresh view on an age-old topic! We do need to be reminded of Who does the work! All too often we limit ourselves by thinking we have to handle a problem on our own, while (as you point out) the real Creator/Constructor/Healer -- our divine Helper -- is right with us all along. Thanks so much for this 'lift' today!

  59. Thank you so much, this was exactly what I needed to hear this morning, thank you!

  60. Thanks ever so much Brian! Reminds me that when I stop thinking what should unfold, and just listen and witness, God has a way better plan than I did! So comorting! So healing! Thanks again.

  61. In Japan, I often took early morning walks. It was always an inspiration to come upon a home being built by workers in the traditional Japanese style---no power tools---but chisels, mallets and pull saws. A few times a worker would notice my admiration of their skills and invite me to come in and even try out a tool. I have always enjoyed working with hand tools. The patience involved prompt holding in thought "the house built without hands --- eternal in the heavens." (S&H p.454)

  62. And how lovely to realize that we can watch in His arms as " consciousness constructs a better body as faith in matter is conquered," as Mary Baker Eddy wrote.

  63. Could a phrase from today's quieting lift be one of the "models in thought"
    of which Mrs.Eddy speaks? She wrote,"We must form perfect models in thought and look at them continually, or we shall never carve them out in grand and
    noble lives."(248:Science and Health). From the many inspiring Daily Lifts, here are a few that one might choose from as models: "Let Christ be the wings that lift thought upward." "The nowness of newness." " Do a good deed and another." "God is in the driver's seat.Mind is present and in control." "Feel the"sustaining infinite" hugging you as you lean forward." " We are already at our destination: wholeness." "Love is not something to get, but what we are." " Bless others when it's hard and you don't feel like it." "Brake for angels. Come to a complete stop. Look and listen for angel messages." "Fish in deeper waters. Think more deeply than selfishness."
    Most of these,I think, are in accord with your great "Watching God Work" idea, Brian.
    Thank you and all the other dear lecturers for giving us these clear ideas
    to ponder and put into use.

  64. What a great reminder . . . I have to laugh at the times I still find myself praying and asking God to help ME do something . . .when what is needed is for me to surrender any sense of a separate self, and see God as the supreme Doer, and me as His unfailing reflection . .

    So much thanks to all the Daily LIft team, and to the whole worldwide family of Lifters. You all mean more to me than mere words can express.

  65. Thank you so much, Brian, for this wonderful lift! What a great way to start out my week....being still, watching God work, expectant and joyful!

  66. Thanks Brian. Jesus said "And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch."Mark 13 ;37 and " Wait patiently for divine Love to move upon the waters of mortal mind, and form the perfect concept. Patience must "have her perfect work." MBE pg 14 S&H. Your lift and everyone's comments have been so helpful in deciding next human steps to take!!

  67. Thank you Brian! As I started to listen to the lift, I looked out the window and although it is a very misty day here, I saw a rainbow in the mist. Very unusual! During the whole lift I listened and looked. Since my father passed away two years ago, rainbows have been a personal symbol of my dad for me, so this lift symbolized the wonderful works of our heavenly Father created in beauty and splendor as well as a medium for my earthly father to say "hello". Since my father and I share(d) the same the same line of work as dancer and choreographer, and I am about to embark on creating a dance piece where I hope, in my humble way, to reflect the joyous grace of God, this lift is a good reminder to "let go and let God" do the work of glorifying His/Her creation as a grand celebration of beauty! What a lovely start to the day!

  68. Thank you, Brian. Every Daily LIft is wonderfu; however, this morning, while listening to you, I felt like I just had a C.S. treatment. Thank you so much! What a gift to receive first thing ini the morning! Thank you.

  69. Thank-you Brain , Just what I needed today . Be still, listen and watch for Gods solution . I love this watch for it is not my doing anything it is God that brings a harmonious solution. This is just what I needed! Loves work and Love must fit. It is not me scurrying to do a zillion things, God is adjusting me to my work and my work to me. I will take my hand off the tiller and Watch!

  70. Thank you Brian for a powerful, beautiful Lift; it shows the Christ in action, using human experience to reiforce spiritual Truth. And thank you Lifters for your wonderful elaborations and extensions that daily expand and make the Lift even more applicable and accessible. Thank you today especially #63 Mary Reed for your storehouse of great treatments from prior Lifts...you have saved some of the best, most profound thoughts--all treasures...wonderful that you squirrelled them away--and have shared them!

  71. What a wonderful array of reactions to such a warm and insightful opening
    message.

    I recently, and surprisingly undertook the quick sale of my condo after
    locating a new residence and it is falling into place just as #57 says, by
    watching God work.

  72. Thank you Brian what a great Lift
    This helps me remove personal sense....to watch less the "human" and watch more the Divine! to be still.... and watch!
    We love, reflect (watch) God with all that we do!
    I John 4:19
    We love him, because he first loved us

    Today I will be alert and active and will “watch” God work and see that I am reflecting kindness goodness unselfishness forgiveness patience obedience generosity loyalty mercy humility meekness modesty mildness moderation faithfulness cooperation politeness respectfulness responsiveness consideration affection gentleness omnipresence tolerance service harmlessness inoffensiveness contentment devotion friendliness protection liberation provision correction bliss charity empathy motherhood compassion courtesy thoughtfulness self-possession attentiveness infinity impartiality unification inexhaustibility tenderness endurance universality might ect….
    (from www.spirituality.com/bible-lesson/pdfs/god-synonyms.pdf)

    Hymn #237

    O may we be still and seek Him

    God is watching with the watchful

    Thank you Brian and ALL the wonderful helpful comments
    Happy Watching Daily Lift Family
    Thank you #63. Mary Reed That was great!

  73. ...and a little child shall lead them; thank you for this gentle message.

  74. It's so easy to get overwhelmed with work, so I love this idea of watching God work; I watch, and be open prayerfully for guidance. That takes a load off my shoulders! Thank you, Brian.

  75. Thank you, Brian. Such a clear analogy. And thanks, also to AB #30 for making me laugh at the many ways we "judge" what we see going on around us. How refreshing to drop that burden of false responsibility and just enjoy witnessing God being God, Good.

    Thank you Lift team and BOL!

  76. Thank you, Brian. - A great reassuring "lift" especially helpful for those of us seeking our next postion of employment!

  77. Brian your message and reminder that God goes before us in working his perfect solution in our lives to meet our every need is indeed the inspiration needed for my daily lift. Thank you.

  78. What a wonderful image! And your calm, sweet tone just matched the the message. Too often, I forget that I'm not the engineer of my life and its activities! This Lift was just a perfect antidote and will stay with me far more than just today!

  79. Thanks to #57 - sharing the 3 part progression of your practitioner friend and to #69 for saying they would take their hand "off the tiller [the steering mechanism/wheel of a sailboat] and watch [God do the work]".....all the the comments are SO inspiring and thanks to the Lift "team" for all that you do Monday thru Friday...and beyond!

  80. I love this message from God, who chose the perfect messenger to deliver it.

    I also love #30 AB's comment, including its "Gratitude and grace to all" benediction.

  81. Thank you, Mr. Talcott, for turning my thought to watch God work. Yes, I knew we are to be childlike, and yes, I knew we treat our problems by thinking about what or how God makes and keeps Creation, including us, the very ideas of divine Mind, but I hadn't thought of such simple, childlike approach to learn what I needed to know. You highlighted this very necessary thinking and watching, presenting it as sweet and observable, as well as knowable, and even fun to discover all the ways to watch each day. God is holding us, while He works. We can watch, learn, and as Jesus said, do likewise. I'll always think of this Lift when I read John 5:17-21 where Jesus revealed he had been watching the Father and had more, even greater to watch and do. You elevated these verses from being an intellectual thing, to a family relationship participation. No matter how much I know the Bible, and use it, These Daily Lifts just make it sparkle and bloom, like live, true roses, but made of precious jewels.
    Thanks to all above, they were inspiring and enlightening comments.

  82. These thoughts are helpful to us as we watch our remodelers work. Thank you!

  83. Thank you Brian and commenters most inspiring...

  84. Thanks Brian for the useful lift.

  85. Thank you Brian very much. And thank you Tracy #49 for today's and Friday's comments ( S&H p.176...). And thank you ALL Daily Lifters for all your thoughts of love that you share. And Always, Thank you beloved Mother Church of Christ Scientist!

  86. Great message for a court case coming up tomorrow! I'm very grateful.

  87. Thank you so much- that was a wonderful reminder and boy, did I need it! I've been worrying about finding the ideal new home for me, now that I have a buyer for my house. But now I will just watch as God leads me to my hew place. After all, I am home already so the right place is already assured.
    All the best and many thanks,
    Mandi

  88. Thank you so much Brian !
    It helps me alot when I am still and I know God is with me in my thoughts helping and guiding me all the way !

  89. This is wonderful. I listened around 6 a.m. Maine time, but didn't have time to leave a comment. I have just re-listened, and will do so again tomorrow. This is helpful to me and I know to many others.

  90. Thanks so much, Brian, for this simple and powerful analogy. And thanks to all the Lifters who have added their valuable thoughts. I especially enjoyed #30 AB's comments and also #81, J.S.'s comments. A final thanks to all the Daily Lift staff and to the BofL for providing this valued communication.

  91. Many thanks for just what I needed.

  92. This is such a reassuring angel thought; thank you so much for sharing it!!

  93. Thank you Brian for today's message. I made it a point to be still and listen today. I especially love comments # 30, # 40 # 67 and # 76 - very meaningful to me.

  94. Recently I was in a situation that was a bit frustrating. I was too far from the problem to manipulate a solution and I was starting to feel a bit helpless. There was nothing left to do but trust God. Lo and behold, things worked out beautifully. Next time I plan to do the trusting thing before the feeling helpless thing! Thanks, Brian, for your beautiful reminder that an important part of our job is to bear witness to God's ongoing, glorious work!

  95. Lovely, Brian. And #52 for your 'lift'. You said you 'watched God's glory all around all day long". A practitioner once wrote and said, "the only thing going on is the good passing before us."
    Grace will see us through. So appreciate all the gracious comments.

  96. Wonderful....... to be still...... and know that God is working His purpose out ....for all of us...... right now....

    Thanks, Brian.....

  97. What a fantastic msg. Thank you so much and sorry for being one day late.

  98. Thanks Brian. As soon as I hung up the phone this morning from listenng to your DL, I sat still and watched as God revealed the solution to a problem I had been actively trying to resolve 'my way' for several hours during the night. Of course, the resolution was there to be seen all the time!

  99. Brian, thank you so much. My email sometimes delivers the Daily Lift a day late. So here it is Tuesday, 14 June, and I was spinning around like a top this morning finding it hard to settle my thought. In came your Daily Lift and broke that mesmerism and enabled me to just "watch God." What a blessing!

  100. Love this message! It is so easy to make a "problem" part of us, when in reality it has only the power we give it. I will make a special effort to remind myself to be still and watch God work today and every day.

  101. Thank you, Brian, for this and many other thoughtful messages. What you expressed today reminds me of Jesus' teaching, "What I say unto you, I say unto all: Watch", and "Seek and ye shall find", and Paul's, "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus". All these encourage us to cultivate an attitude that is attentive to God, to "Be still and know that I am God". So many times I have found comfort, and healing, and answers to problems by practicing watchfulness and attentiveness. And this is actually witnessing God's work, what He has already done. Much gratitude to all the speakers and to the staff for these Daily Lifts that express the Christ Science so concisely, so clearly, for all to practice.

  102. Thanks Brian, I had listen to the message on Monday and could not write any comments. I was 'dealing' with a problem that seemed to persist regardless of my efforts by means of prayer. This morning, two days after your 'lift' was publised I noticed that I was not childlike, not still, not watching the work of God but listening to mortal mind confusing my understanding. I listened to your message again and immediately noticed that I don't have to do God's work but just stop, be childlike, still and watch how He does the job. Such a peaceful solution overcame all troubles at hand. I am so grateful for this inspired program and the helpful comments.

    Gracias Brian. He escuchado el mensaje el lunes y no pude escribir ningún comentario. Estaba 'enfrentando' un problema que parecía persistir a pesar de mis esfuerzos por medio de la oración. Esta mañana, dos días después de que tu 'lift' fue publicado he notado que yo no actuaba como un niño, no estaba callado, no miraba la obra de Dios pero estaba escuchando a la mente mortal confundiendo mi entendimiento. Escuché tu mensaje otra vez e inmediatamente noté que yo no tengo que hacer el trabajo de Dios sino solo parar, ser como un niño, callarme y contemplar cómo Él hace la tarea. Tal solución pacífica superó todos los problemas a la mano. Estoy tan agradecido por este programa inspirado y los comentarios útiles.

Tal solución pacífica superó todos los problemas a la mano. Estoy tan agradecido por este programa inspirado y los comentarios útiles.

  104. Thank you, Brian, and all the divine comments of fellow Lifters around the world! We are so blessed to have this wonderful "daily treatment" mentioned earlier. I love the tone of your voice, Brian, so calm, so reassuring, that if we simply have that childlike trust we are all born with, all truly will be well! It is so easy to forget what it feels like to just YIELD and let God do His work through each of our lives. So tempting to want to give "suggestions" along the way! But as you touched on, why not just watch and accept. instead of suggest!

  105. Thank you Brian very helpful Dee Norris

  106. Your lifts are always so mindful and go well below the surface of your words. I love them. Thank you.

  107. Here it is many days after this was shared and it is still blessing. The words were just what I needed to hear today (Sat.). Thank you, thank you. So beautifully shared. Loved the image of Grandpa and Owen sharing a precious moment just observing.

  108. I like that this entire audience for the Mother's Church Lecturers, . . . the entire audience has a perfect, unostructed view.

    We can all view God's work expressing our God-given energy, equality, and dignity.

    Nation, gender, age, belief fall silent when we watch, reflect, God's work.
