Channels

This earthly dimension - where our human self functions - is just the tip of the iceberg to what we may be connected with and access. Extending (up and down) into all the various dimensions of creation, there is an infinite array of “Spiritual Consciousness” and “Life Energies”, each one making up the re-sources from which our Soul can possibly utilize as its collective "Higher Power".

Just as no two people can have the same subjective experiences of - and connections to – “Life”, so to does each soul experience its own unique connections with - or channels into – “Spirit”.

Depending upon the openness and clarity a channel you have between your human self and The Great Spirit/Life, is one of the limiting factor on how “much” your soul can draw from this vast ocean of "Power" (for use in healing or other endeavors). It’s analogous to a water hose. If your hose is narrow, blocked or pinched, only so much water can come out. However, if you have a very wide, open clear hose, the force of water that comes out can be immense.

The other factor is not “how much” of this Spirit/Life a particular soul can channel, but how masterfully and accurately it can be “applied”. For example:
There are a lot of people who can throw a fast ball, but only a few who have the mastery to make it go in the same place across the base, over and over again, with finesse....Or; Anyone can use a knife, but only a trained and knowledgeable surgeon knows where to safely apply it....And finally; We are all innately endowed with the healing gift. These biological structures and systems our spirits inhabit were designed to automatically self-repair (or “heal”). But “Spiritual Healing” is a whole other ball game, and in those arenas, there are souls who “know” how to heal, and other souls who don’t.

“As above so below”
Just like a person spends years developing a mastery and expertise in a skill or trade, so to do we see the higher spirit self developing a mastery and expertise in some unique area. Such mastery doesn’t take years but many many lifetimes... at the very least.
