You are here to serve others, to be a light for them, to participate in their lessons and to help heal humanity. You are also here to serve yourself, to heal your karma, to enable your soul's growth and reconnect to the Source. Your challenge is to find a balance between serving others and yourself so that you can accomplish the tasks that you established for yourself in this lifetime and even go beyond that. How you view your role in serving others is an important part of this process.
If you view your role as a servant to others as consisting of being responsible for their problems, being constantly available and creating a positive outcome in all things for them, you have undertaken the task of being responsible for their healing. This is a good effort but one that will fail as each person is responsible for their own healing. And it will take your focus from serving yourself. If you participate in their lessons by living their pain and without establishing boundaries for your involvement, you will be so caught up in their healing that you will not have time for your own. When you do these things, you affirm their powerlessness and their inability to experience and learn from their lessons.
When you view your role as a servant to others as being a light in their lives, you acknowledge their power, the value of their lessons and their responsibility for their reality. You will be given opportunities to help them and will decide how to do that in a way that honors their power and ability to heal themselves. If you treat each person with unconditional love and non- judgment you bring them into the light and allow them to find their own path to healing. They will make the choices that they are able to make and you have completed your role in serving them. Sometimes the greatest way to serve others is to allow them the freedom to experience, learn and heal from their own lessons.
Those who choose to not heal have made a powerful choice for themselves, one that you cannot change. You can be a light in their lives, a light that they can accept or not according to their own level of spiritual growth and understanding. Each of you is here to serve yourselves and others, to be a light for the world, to heal and to reconnect to Source. Finding the balance in these roles benefits everyone as each person is able to act within their power and create healing in their lives.
