One of the ways I learned to forgive some of my worst childhood tormentors?
I meditated on what I ACTUALLY wanted to see in their life.
The easy thing to want is their torment and destruction. We've been programmed into wanting to see just as much, if not more pain inflecting them as they've caused us.
But when I was able to rest in the Love of God and truly reflect on what I actually did want to see in their life...
I WANTED to see transformation.
In my heart, that's what brought the most joy.
I wanted to see them healed.
I wanted to see them recover.
I wanted to know in my heart that they would never ever hurt another child like that again.
I wanted to see them as a broken child too and to see their broken child become whole so they could stop breaking other children.
I wanted to see them whole.
Happy.
Free.
That's what my heart truly wanted.
Then I recognized that I was standing in their way to healing.
Everytime I hated them.
Everytime I resented them.
Everytime I blamed them.
Everytime I cursed them...
I was manifesting bad, bad, bad into their very soul.
I knew I had to change.
My heart was transforming.
And now when I think of those people, yes, I have a memory of the pain they caused me, but it's just a memory. It's not an attachment I feel the need to hurt over today, anymore.
Now, when I think of them, I pray for them.
I pray they are on their way to healing.
I pray they have changed their ways.
I pray they've felt my forgiveness and have begun forgiving themself too.
Because I've done things that used to bring me shame, guilt, fear.
And at some point I felt Gods Love, Grace, Forgiveness.
"Agape" "Redemption" God said.
And that's all I want for those who hurt me. That's what I want for EVERYONE.
I've EXPERIENCED a heart transformation and I KNOW what it feels, sounds and looks like. I want to help others see that they have that CHOICE too.
Because you see, God wasn't holding out for one day when I'd suddenly have racked up enough good deeds that I'd be deemed worthy of Love and Grace and Forgiveness.
God was just waiting for me to ACCEPT these things. They were ALWAYS available to me. I was blind, I didn't see, I thought I had to repent and climb a thousand mountains and I'd still never be worthy.
That's a LIE.
God isn't waiting for you to be "good enough".
He's waiting for you to innerstand that you always were.
And in that innerstanding, your heart transforms naturally.
You start to see how we got so broken and you start to recognize when you are projecting your pain onto others.
What happens when the world recognizes this?
When the world sees that if they want to stop hurting, they must stop hurting those around them?
That LOVE truly is the way to freedom?
That LOVE truly is what calls in Heaven on Earth?
Picture a world where we accept the Divine Love of God in all of our hearts. A world where the last thing we'd want to do is intentionally hurt someone else. A world where we stop turning off our feelings and start tuning into the entire guidance system which exists in our hearts.
Do you see it?
Can you feel it?
Hold onto that image.
Meditate on it.
I believe it is coming.
I pray every single person who reads this feels the transformation in their Heart that I did and still do every opportunity I face where conflict exists.
No more judging.
No more comparing.
No more projecting, hating, condemning.
May your heart transform with so much Love that you barely recognize any version of yourself that existed under shame, fear and guilt.

ALL of these "errors" are what push everyone out of church and religion and all man-packaged-and-boxed-Gods.
You preach fear = you're losing people.
You preach guilt = youre losing people.
You preach shame = you're losing people.
Interpret that which ever way it all comes out the same in the wash.
Why is it that the institutions "certified" and "qualified" to teach the mass populations about God ALL seem to preach all of these errors?
Ask yourself - why is FAILURE the core focus?
Why is WEAKNESS the core focus?
Why are you told to believe that you will ALWAYS be broken and that you're ONLY hope is to die to yourself, to shut off all of your human impulses and emotions?
How can you walk in a Loving, all encompassing, graceful and forgiving Spirit if you are dead inside?
Let's REWIND, UNWIND AND UNCOVER what has been twisted, hidden and perverted.
Shame controls you.
Guilt controls you.
Fear controls you.
Do you like being controlled?
Do you really think your loving creator wants you to be controlled by other people and their rehearsed and re-written interpretations of their own shames?
It doesn't really matter what everyone's answers are to these questions and how/where they differ. So long as you are authentic with your self.
Next time you're listening to a message from someone preaching that you do, will or will always carry shame, fear and guilt because of XYZ, ask yourself, why is that their focus? Why is THAT the most important message from these so called "deliverers of God's Word"?

VK just dropped a video with all kinds of stuff in it that no one was touching on publicly. I see this as a very big deal.
The connections to religion are being drawn on the world stage.

This highlighting of the lies told by the church is going to trigger many people into either facing, or continuing to avoid their own shadows.
Be aware. And be ready to help as you are needed. When you have already experienced what may be coming for others, you understand that what you went through was to prepare you to help others. When you truly understand what they are experiencing, you are able to be authentic with them in ways that others cannot. 😇
