Giving What We Have

“No one can ask another to be healed.

But he can let himself be healed, and the offer the other what he has received.

Who can bestow upon another what he does not have?

And who can share what he denies himself?

                                Gifts from a Course in Miracles, Vaughn and Walsh

we cannot give what we do not have

I know they talk about wounded healers

and certainly empathy is born

from experience

and yet

joy begets joy

hope begets hope

love begets love

peace begets peace

it is as I am connected with the Sacred

and feel the Presence

and know

God’s love

that I can best share that

Presence, that love

Grace
