Light

I heard a story this weekend about three men walking along a road and God appeared to them. God gave each man a light and said return tomorrow with this light and you will be rewarded. The first man went home and placed the light in a safe and locked it up to protect it. The second man saw the beauty of the light and tied a string to it and hung the light in a window so it could shine like a prism in his house. The third man walked around the town freely giving the light away to everyone he met. Each time he did, his light grew. The three men returned the next day and the first man’s light had all but completely burnt out; the second man’s light was dim but brighter than the first. But the third man’s light had grown and was brighter than the original. God returned and said you have each received your reward according to what you did with the light.

There exists within you a power far greater than any medication, electrical power plant, or computer. It is who you are; THE who you truly are; your true self. Not the egotistical filing cabinet that can regurgitate facts and figures at a moment’s notice but YOU. It is when you connect with this true self, this INNATE being…God within you…that you fulfill your potential and accomplish anything you can dream of. Mountains will move, crises will be averted and wounds will heal.

Chiropractic is about giving. The more of yourself that you give away, the stronger your true self becomes and the more of it is revealed. In the giving you’ll find you won’t run out of gas, but have more of it to give. Only when we think or focus on the getting (What’s in it for me) do we burn out. If you are here to get something without giving something of yourself, don’t be surprised by your results. Results come when we freely give of ourselves…when we help others. It is in freely giving of ourselves that we open our hearts and souls and miracles occur. Miracles occur everyday. Have you had any?

Like the light, the gift that is Chiropractic works best when you give it away to others. What will you do with the light that shines inside of you?
