Healer's Attitude

The second saying that I like to use is John 13: 34 – 35 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." I call this an attitude because love is so often taken as an emotion. This love that Jesus mentions here is not emotion but a matter of will. It is not simply affinity but a profound desire to achieve ultimate good in other souls. It is a desire so profound that it can even evoke personal sacrifice to achieve ultimate good for another person. How would we know exactly what ultimate good would be? From Jesus’ sayings it is clear that his view of ultimate good is to be at one with the will of our creator, and that brings us to the third saying that defines the goal of our healing work and our healing attitude.
