Happy New Year 2015!

Once I gave in, gave up, and lowered my defenses, I allowed God to see into me, to see inside of me. And the more I allowed God to look, I realized that I have been made up of more pain than anything else, not just pain from recent events, but from my whole life, all the way down to early childhood. I realized that I have been keeping God from seeing that pain, thinking that I was protecting God from my ugly, dark secrets, but I was wrong. God sees it anyway. So once I opened up and surrendered and allowed God to fully enter my inner landscape and step inside of all that pain... do you know what happened? Suddenly I felt a whoosh of Unconditional Love rush towards me and through me. It raced into the dark, hidden crevasses of my heart and mind. God was not ashamed of me. God forgave me. God washed my insides clean. God freed me.
This has now become my regular mediation routine, to allow God to see into every tiny part of myself. The results? I have felt incredible! My dreams have been full of Light and empowerment! At random moments during the day I feel God's presence and know that I am ok. I always have been and I always will be.
The same goes for you.
Now, I have committed to God to move forward with this Light, to live with it and to share it. Because I clearly see it now: why else would we be here?

Happy New Year :)

Keep Your Heart Open to Everyone

This evening I had a beautiful angel reading with an amazing woman who lives in Brooklyn, New York.  And if you've been following my blog, you know how much I love to write about love.  It is something that fascinates me and I seek to learn as much as I can about how to works in our lives.
During this reading, this woman's angels began talking to her about keeping her heart open to everyone in her life.  At first, this information did not resonate with the woman because she immediate thought that love meant sexual/romantic realitionships and she didn't want to "keep her heart open" for that kind of relationship with everyone.  But here is what the angels said:

You are talking about two different things here.  Keeping your heart open, and sexual/romantic relationships are two different things.  When we say, "Keep your heart open to everyone," we are talking about a very high spiritual level of existence.  Imagine that you have died.  We know this sounds morbid right now, but play along... imagine that you have died, and you are in heaven meeting every single person you met during your life.  Imagine the joy and the relief of seeing them all again in such a healing space.  Now, imagine that you not only get to meet these people again and celebrate, but that you also get to say to them, "What did I contribute to your life because I lived with my heart open to you?  What were you able to accomplish simply because I refused to stop loving you?"
How would that conversation go?  What if people were able to say back to you, "All of my dreams came true because you refused to stop loving me!"  Or imagine people being able to say to you, "Your love gave me the strength and the perseverance to believe in myself and accomplish all of my goals."  What if everyone you encountered in heaven got to say to you, "Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you!"
This is what "keeping your heart open to everyone" means when the angels say it to you.  It means that you let people go, you allow them to live their lives, you give them space, you never hold back and you believe in them so strongly that the Universe hears your call and follows your prayers immediately.  Keeping your heart open to everyone means giving them a chance to succeed whether you are there to share in the victory or not.
