Self love, the root of faith


It has been a couple weeks since my last post, but there have been a lot of downloads in that time which have really taken a toll on me physically. As a mother to a toddler I am already just, as part of my status quo, exhausted, but then add energy boosts and upgrades and downloads and activations to the mix and, well, the result is today's three-hour nap and overall zombie-like energy.

Quick side bar: you would think that when recieving these downloads that your energy would increase and you'd feel all magical and powerful, but I've found that it's not the case. At least for me. Our human consciousness lags behind our higher consciousness by design and also due to the limitations of this reality, and so it's like putting in a new operating system in an old machine. Fortunately for human beings, we are not machines, and our human bodies/consciousness eventually catches up - but there is still a lag. As we get older that lag can feel longer and longer, and harder and harder. But the wisdom you gain as a result is worth the trouble, so I'm accepting of this sacred exchange even if I do look and feel haggard!

One of the most important takeaways from the downloads over the last couple weeks has been that of Awakened Leadership; in fact, it has sort of completely changed the trajectory of my mission. Perhaps it's more accurate to say that my understanding of my mission has changed completely, because I am slowly putting the pieces of this puzzle together as things are revealed to me when I'm ready to have them be revealed to me (as is meant). In this way it probably looks like I am stumbling around a bit in the dark, though unafraid because I know that whatever I do is right, because I'm doing it. Leaning in to your faith in Source and yourself through Source as Source's perfect creation can only lead you to exactly where you're meant to be, and what better way to go through life than that?

And as I lean into Awakened Leadership and learn what it is even as I begin writing about it (channeling higher consciousness in the doing), I continue to be struck by the notion of faith and what it actually does and means for us as human beings. Because the foundation of everything is one thing: self love. Without it, the house we try to build will sink into the earth; with it, the frame and walls and rooms we build to live and grow into will stand forever. 

Why self love? Because love itself is the glue that binds the universe, and also that which powers creation. It is one of the four pillars of Source, which also includes creation itself. Love therefore is neither an emotion or does it represent acceptance, it is far grander than that. Love is how existence exists in the first place. Love is ubiquitous and ethereal both what connects us to Source and also Source itself. It even encompasses the other three pillars. It is everything. When you love yourself, therefore, you are honouring Source who created you, who loves you beyond all human imagining. Human beings cannot conceive of how greatly they are loved, and so this is where faith needs to come in. 

People claim to have faith in God but when it comes to themselves, they are bereft. True faith is rooted in self love - which is neither egoic or narcissistic but altruistic; self love is the recognition that you are both the one and the many, that to treat another as you would be treated is to treat yourself. Self love is seeing yourself in others and others in yourself. It is forgiving yourself and forgiving others. Self love in and of itself is an act of faith in Source - that which cannot be named - because you are living in complete and total alignment in what was intended. Self love is the recognition of God's power through you because you are of God. 

People place faith in so many things these days, and so often the wrong things (though nothing is really wrong, because where a person is on the journey is exactly where they're supposed to be). The truth is that the further away from God we seem to stray is exactly the distance we were supposed to go in order to find our way back. Have faith that all is meant.
