Stop at a fish market one day and find the person selling fresh crabs. Youโll notice that the crabs are all piled in a bucket without a lid. Watch long enough and youโll see the crabs on top start climbing out. However, the captive crabs will actually reach up and pull the escapees back into the bucket.
Life can be like that bucket of crabs. The moment you start something to improve yourself, subluxated people around you show their jealousy and attempt to pull you back into their subluxated ways of life. They ask subluxated questions like โwhy are you doing that?โ Or make subluxated statements like โthat will never work.โ Like the crabs, sometimes we succumb to them and fall back into the bucket.
Thankfully, those are the exact challenges God placed before us to solidify that we are on the right path. By getting adjusted we overcome subluxated objections and God sets us free. Once free, we have the ability to reach down into the bucket and pull our crabby friends to the same freedom.
โThe need for approval, acceptance or any other thought-form that FEAR may take is replaced with positve, childlike enthusiasm. I do not depend on the โup and downโ world for my peace.โ Steve Schargel, D.C.
