Standing in your truth is the purest form of self-love. ~ Creator

Dear Ones, if you can accept that your growth is your service, and that what you consider to be your mistakes lead to your growth, it would stand to reason then that your mistakes serve both you and the whole, as well. The fact that you have had an experience and now know that if you had it to do again you would choose differently indicates expansion, growth, and greater maturity. That has shifted energy in a way that serves not just you in your greater knowingness of self, but also others who can learn from your experience. You have also anchored the energy of the ability to evolve beyond the original action.

Do you see?  Based on this new perspective, you can release shame and guilt for actions you took when you did not know better and give yourself the gift of understanding and forgiveness this holiday season. Taking the step of having love and compassion for yourself for it all is yet another way to serve the whole and express the divine being you truly are.  Further, once you can have love, understanding, and acceptance for yourself, you will be much better able to have the same for others. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young

Beloved, I don’t tell you anything new when I say that into each life some rain doth fall. You already know this well. Sometimes you don’t believe it, for instance, that even saints have days that seem unfair. There seems to be random pain. Gandhi was so for peace, and yet he was assassinated. Christ was misunderstood, etc.

Dear one, there has been much wringing of hands, anxious thoughts and a bit of trepidation at what The Universe will present next.  Some will wait with bated breath for the next hint, sign or signal to move forward.  The searching and gleaning of information in every little thing written or spoken, looking for something, anything, that will give you permission to make the next step.  The one thing you seem to have forgotten, darling child, is that you have been receiving the necessary and needed information the whole time! (Smiling)  The issue lies not in what you receive but, how you have gotten so used to trusting others words more than your own.  The time for second-guessing is over!  It is time to begin trusting yourself as much as The Universe trusts you! ~ Creator

Dear Ones, allow this truth to settle into your heart. Your growth is your service. There is nothing more impactful you can do than to continue your own expansion and enlightenment for it serves both you and the whole so beautifully. That is how you are the change, how you walk your talk, how you are the beautiful teachers by example, how you embody the light, how you are the brave and glorious pioneers of the new. You are driving the shift with every discovery you make, every release, every integration, every act of love. Never underestimate the amazing job you are doing, for you are at the heart of it all. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young

Beloved, so much in the world at large today emphasizes how you are supposed to change right and left. This is with the idea of getting ahead. I am all for progress, and for you to progress to your heart’s content, yet must you have to have a total makeover and become someone else in order to become what you most want to be?

Must you have financial success? Romantic success? Marital success, etc.? Be a phenomenal artist and play the banjo to the delight of all who hear you play? What resounding applause!
