What’s a healing touch?

First, I’ll tell you what it isn’t. A healing touch isn’t like what you see in the movies…where someone gets struck by lightning and suddenly they can touch people and cure diseases. A healing touch isn’t about making miracles happen wherever you go. It isn’t about you. It isn’t about me. And it isn’t really even about physical healing.

Healing touch can happen even without any physical touch. Has anyone ever “touched your heart” in a meaningful, lasting way? Well, did they actually touch your heart? Or wasn’t it actually a feeling you had inside?

Healing Touch

From breath to breath
And heart to heart
Go share your gifts
And be the start
Of something good
And something pure
A noble cause
Steadfast and sure.
With lovely things
And lots of praise
To light up lives
And brighten days
Give good account
When life is just
And virtue builds
A higher trust.
Offer these things
That mean so much
And you will be
A healing touch.
