To Healers

As Far as i'm concerned, we are all healers, in our own right, in what we do each and everyday, we heal or hurt the people around us. In the simple act of listening, we are healing a person. By Showing a little more attention to what someone is saying, that in itself heals a lot more than a pill.

Saying that we are healers in our own right, is a very big statement. Its a very big thing.
Think about it, We hold the lives of everybody we come across in our hands. To make these lives better, or to inflict endless pain and misery. Which would you choose?

Show true care and concern for our fellow Man, actually love and care for a complete stranger.
Stop and help someone up when that person falls. Stop to check when someone has an accident, instead of driving past just to take a look, or to take down the license plate number.

Why do we have to put on a facade? Why stop ourselves from helping someone when he or she is in trouble? Why look at someone different just because this person doesn't know something?
In truth, are any of us better than anyone else? We're all special in different ways, we're all good and different things. Does having more money and more knowledge make someone better that another? I think not! So, that being false, why do we still do it? Each time we do that, we hurt a person, we harm a person. Each time the pain goes deeper, the pain hurts more.

As Healers, we must stop, we must make sure of ourselves. By stopping, and treating each person as we would treat ourselves, the hurting would stop, the depressed wouldn't be so depressed. There'd be so much less emotional trouble in people....

It doesn't take much to stop yourselves from doing so does it? Think about it......


Prayer for the healer
Lord, give me a Heart that feel.
Give me hands that heal.
Give me eyes that see both inside and out.
Give me lips that speak care and concern.
Give me a mind that thinks of ways to heal.

Lord, Help me heal in my every action.
And Love with every decision.
Help me show care with every word,
And show concern in every expression.
Help me see with your eyes,
And let me know how to heal.

Help me feel yet not impede.
Help me see yet not turn away.
Help me speak the truth and not shy away from it.

Amen.
