Search the Loving Each Day Quotes

These negative things that come to cause self-doubt teach us to rise up in the levels of God that have yet to be experienced consciously. This world is a place that causes us to encounter our God-given strengths and the power that is the Divine.

We play so many roles in life. We play the martyr, the hero, the depressed one -- it goes on and on. I want to give you a new role to play and try on for size; it's one you can play 100 percent. I am asking you to play the Beloved. You don't need to have a wide, dramatic repertoire; just be this one thing. It is really fine with me that you play any role you want to, even if that role is a negative one, because the Beloved gives you space and freedom to play all the roles. I do suggest that you don't hurt yourself and don't hurt others. Be loving instead. When you love others and you look at them, that place inside of you that is love comes alive. And right behind that place of love is the Be-Loved-One. The being that you are is the Being-Loved-One. Did you get that? Give yourself a moment to take it in. Love isn't enough. The Be-Loving-One is enough. Behind all the roles we play and the masks we put on is the Beloved, behind all of it. Start by saying, "I am the Beloved." At some point that statement becomes something that rolls deep within you and you just know the reality of it. For now, just do your best to really own that you are the Beloved. Start by letting all your actions, even the mundane ones, be loving, even if only for a few minutes. Then expand the time gradually.

Open yourself to serve Spirit.

Remember that no matter what you are going through, you are never alone, abandoned, or forsaken. God is in you, so how can you ever be separated from God? You can feel separated, think you are separated, imagine that you are separated, but the truth is that you are not. Knowing that connection is, of course, the key, and I teach spiritual exercises and Soul Transcendence because I know that this is a proven way for people to know their own divinity.

When you place your loyalty, your dedication out there in the world, it will not maintain and hold, and you will have upsets and hurts, feelings of betrayal and rejection. Instead, be loyal and dedicated to the trueness of your own beingness. We can call it cosmic consciousness, Christ, God.

You can only live your experience. You can only know the validity of your own experience and how to make that work for you.

If there is greater negativity finding its way into your consciousness or confronting you, that is just something saying, "Okay, here's some negativity to handle." How do you handle it? You love it. You love it the best way you can. You just hold the love and the Light through it. You don't give in. And if you do give in, you forgive yourself because you are of the Christ. Christ is forgiveness and that's that. There is nothing that isn't forgiven. There is nothing that you can do, there is nothing that anybody else can do, that is not in the forgiveness of the Christ.

I've been trained by everything around me to just admire and respect what is going on even if it may be contrary to what I grew up with. I've been able to do that because to do anything less is to deny what is going on and to deny the Spirit and the perfection of what is.

Connect with the Beloved in whatever way works for you -- affirmations, devotion, meditation, spiritual exercises, unconditional loving -- and maintain the connection as you walk towards what you want. As you walk towards it, if it seems the Beloved separates from what you are doing, then go back inside and connect with it even more deeply.

It is when you rely on someone else to make you happy and to bring you fulfillment that you fall flat on your face. That is when you have given up your responsibility to yourself.
