A Healer? Who Me?

We read about Jesus and the disciples healing people and we question why we can't heal others or why is that not happening today. Doesn't anyone have that special gift? The truth is that we all do indeed have that special gift. We may not be able to cast out demons as we read in the Bible, at least not as specifically described. But we do have a great capacity to heal others. How you say? Well, how about with a smile, a touch, a listening ear, and/or a helping hand. These are just a few ways in which we can heal. Think about it. As a massage therapist and a RN, I know that a touch can be healing -physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Rubbing someone's shoulders and neck can relieve stress, physical problems such as headaches, and emotional blocks as well. A smile can change a person's attitude and stop negative thinking. Do you get the picture? So, knowing that you have this wonderful gift, explore the possibilities and use it more and more each day. A healer? Who me? You bet ya!

  1. Don't forget mental healing, too -- sometimes you hear just the right thing you need to at a given moment. That can be a real blessing :)

    I've been enjoying reading the blog -- though I don't often have time to write a comment!
