No resistance to healing

“I’m resisting this spiritual healing from happening,” a man struggling for relief from suffering complained.

I replied, “If Bill Gates offered you one billion dollars, with no strings attached, free for your taking, would you resist accepting his gift?” He quickly answered that he would not be resistant at all, but would happily accept the offer.

Point made.

If relief is not occurring, it’s not because there is a power called “resistance” in the ether of thought preventing us from being healed. God is the only power, and what God bestows upon us is freely given to us with no obstacles in the way.

The real issue when faced with delay in healing is perhaps not resistance, but acceptance. Are we willing to accept what God is giving?

God gives us eternal life, eternal health, happiness and well being. It's all ours to claim as children of the Divine. And it’s a gift worth infinitely more than a billion dollars.

Are you ready to receive the gift? Are you willing to accept it, and in the form God is giving it?

Resistance is an illusion. If you really want a gift freely bestowed, nothing stands in the way of your receiving it.

Thanks, Evan, for posting a piece "demystifying" resistance--putting it in it's place. Concidentally, after struggling with an unexpected shift in his business, my husband grinned and announced he's decided to take "yes" for an answer. In other word's, instead of being frustrated or puzzled by the fact his business wasn't progressing in the direction expected, he'd acknowledge his prayers answered by the new direction. God wasn't withholding (nor was error blocking). Good was simply being provided differently . . .
