Dear Friend, Often it is we desire healing before doing the work to receive the healing. Why does this happen, when it should appear that we deserve it? It is simply because we cannot move past the issue until we also add to it our input. A healer is only an intermediaarry betwen the angels of a person and their destiny. No one can change the destiny except when the individual wants it more than the past which is the known way. Healing involves moving into unknown regions of the mind for the healing has to take hold long after the healer is finished. Nature has to take hold in the soul and the mind of those healed has to keep the impulse of the healing fresh and alive. That way the healing can be renewed over and over again. It is not continuous, but rather a wave of energies. These are measured according to our wisdom. If we are not able to sense the measures then we must seek for it again or we miss it. We stand outside the power and watch it go past us rather than feel it lift us upwards and we can move on the surface like a boat that is lifted over the breakers and finally makes it over the crests. It is a work, but once the last crest is mounted and we slide over, then the joy of our final triumph comes. The path is now cleared of obstacles. We have at last thought strength and courage broken free.
