We talk a lot about turning within and making that connection with our Sacred Self, our Divine Self, the wisdom, genius, and brilliance within. And yet, many of us have a fear of making that deep connection with ourselves because we are afraid of what we might find.
I was a master at avoiding looking within. I was good
at pretending and I did look within to the places that weren't too deep or too terrifying. Needless to say, I did all of my 'looking' with my head and not with my heart. But I finally embarked on a journey of 'feeling, revealing, and healing' and this journey has been a heart opening and not completely unpleasant. I've discovered my own wisdom and I found there was nothing to fear. In fact, it's been rather entertaining!

What if we are actually betraying our gifts when we fail to connect deeply with ourselves? Even if it looks like we are sharing our gifts, maybe we are actually withholding the fullness of them. If we look within, are we afraid we are powerful or are we afraid we are flawed? Whatever the answer, it's time to face that fear and remember the fear isn't the truth. It's time to let go of that lesser idea (fear) and rise to the heights of glory.
Making that sacred connection with ourselves can be magic in our lives.
But it is only as you let go of the lesser that you can take hold of the greater, only as you drop confusion that you can entertain peace, only as you transcend doubt and fear that you can be lifted up to the hill tops of the inner Life.
