Honor Yourselves

You are here to honor yourself. You honor yourself by trusting yourself, accepting yourself, knowing yourself, and allowing yourself to choose how you feel.

You are the guest of honor in your life. How are you receiving yourself? Many of you may not realize your significance, your importance, or the contribution that your life is offering. The individual view you bring into the world can never be offered by anyone else. The unique combination of your thoughts, feelings, and preferences is literally forming a reality that exists alongside those of others who are also experiencing life. You are a piece of the puzzle, and without you, it can never be completed.

You are not here to live a life that satisfies others, to agree with others, or to be like others. You are being asked to live your unique expression. Do not judge yourself or try to change yourself—you are so perfectly unique. The clothes you wear, the hairstyles you choose, the homes you live in, the cars you drive—all these things are expressions of what you believe yourself to be. Do they honor you? Do they represent you? Do they satisfy you?

Some may feel that it’s superficial to consider these things as representations of who you are, but they are. They may not necessarily be you, but they are representations of you. It is up to you to decide if the view you are portraying of yourself matches the desired view in the Divine.

Take a moment to look at yourself, feel yourself, know yourself, and decide if you feel aligned with yourself in what you observe. Alignment comes from the feeling of matching your preferred state of being. If you are not feeling that preferred state, something is out of alignment. Somewhere, somehow, you are holding onto something that is preventing that state from arriving.

We are here to remind you that a state of being exists for every human that is their preferred feeling state. To receive that state of being, you must embark on a journey within yourself to discover it.

We continually ask you to observe yourself. Why? Because through observation, you gain access to a view of yourself that is hidden by your beliefs and perceptions. Beneath the perceptions of lack, unworthiness, sadness, loneliness, and fear, there is a preferred feeling reality. But you cannot reach that reality without understanding what created the one you are currently in.

The reality you are presently in holds the key to a higher reality. And the key to that higher reality is found in honoring the one that created it. Without love for yourself and honor for what your life has caused you to feel, you cannot access that preferred feeling reality.

It’s difficult for many to believe that you can simply choose a feeling and be completely free to do so. You do not have to worry about whether it’s positive or negative—just let the Divine receive you in what you choose and transmute it. When you surrender, you give up control and release what is felt, allowing it to be used as a signal for what you prefer. There is no longer any need to condemn, change, control, effort, or choose anything different from what you’ve already chosen to feel. Doesn’t it feel good to know that just living is enough? Doesn’t it feel good to know that you are a creator based on feeling? Doesn’t it feel true that it’s natural to feel?

Why would you ever believe that something you are expressing should not be expressed or needs to be changed? In your expression, you are instantly received. It can’t be changed—but it can be transmuted and lifted to the level of love. When you start loving yourself, you will align with your source and begin transmuting energy. You will no longer hold onto painful emotions—they will barely be felt before being released. You will do exactly what your source does, but you will do it instantly in form, so you won’t have to wait for flow; instead, you will become it!

This is how you will become gods in physical form—not through condemning, changing, or effort, but through surrender, acceptance, and honoring yourself in your experience.
