Howdy Folks and Good Day!


I’d like to share a passage with you from Daily Guidance from Your Angels by Doreen Virtue . 

“Self acceptance is the same as GOD-acceptance.  When you love yourself for who you are, you praise the Creator’s handiwork.”

Some of you will really relate to this concept.  Others might think it sounds strange, even blasphemous.  But it’s true.

It also explains why we feel so lousy during the times we criticize, judge, or put ourselves down… because it’s like putting a part of God down. 

Another way of thinking about it is to see your body, mind, soul and life as a precious gift given to you by God.  As with any gift someone has put their heart and soul into, when the recipient rejects the gift, it hurts.  When the recipient receives the gift with honor and gratitude it feels great!

Because we are empathetic by nature, we feel that pain or elation when it comes to accepting or rejecting ourselves, or God’s gift.

Some of us have been taught that we have to put ourselves down to honor God.  How can demeaning the gift God has created honor Him?  If we truly want to honor God, we need to honor ourselves… every aspect or ourselves.

This doesn’t mean we can’t improve on areas that need growing.  Human beings are kind of like Seeds of Divinity.  God created us perfect and whole just as we are.  Yet a seed doesn’t reach its full potential until it is planted, nurtured and grown.  Sometimes we have to add a little water, sunshine and dirt to the seed.   As it grows we have to tend to it, removing pests which could harm the plant, pruning back as needed, and protecting it against dangerous elements.  We also get to enjoy the gifts of watching it blossom, harvesting the fruits of our labor, and enjoying every tasty morsel as it nourishes us.

Today, give yourself permission to accept yourself and love yourself. 

If you do that already, please continue to enjoy the blessings it brings!  And maybe give a word or two of thanks!

But if you’re having a difficult time with self acceptance, trying setting a goal of just loving and accepting yourself for five minutes. 

See the magnificence God created in you – if only for five minutes. 

Send love to yourself – for just five minutes. 

Give yourself permission to say, “I like me and love me” – for just five minutes. 

If your ego tries to block you, tell it you hear what it’s saying but will get back to it later.  Right now you need to love and accept yourself for the next five minutes.

When that five minutes is up, try it for another five minutes.  And then go for ten minutes, an hour, and eventually a day at a time.  Give yourself permission to love and accept yourself in every way possible.  If you need incentive, just remember what Dr. Doreen Virtue says:

“Self acceptance is the same as GOD-acceptance.  When you love yourself for who you are, you praise the Creator’s handiwork.”

A little pro-active positive programming can go a long way in creating our heart’s desires.  All of our thoughts have energy.  Energy attracts like energy.  Think about your desires for today. What would you like to experience in the next 24 hours?   Allow yourself to see it manifesting in your mind’s eye and feel it happening in your body so the energy of your thoughts and emotions draws it to you.

SIMPLE LIFE IMPROVEMENTS

Simple things you can do daily to improve your life…

Enjoy Your Life NOW ~

So much time, energy and emotion are wasted on what could have been, what should have been, and oh my God, what will be tomorrow.  Dude, the only thing you have for certain is right now.  There is so much you could be enjoying if you would step into the here and now and live. 

Relax ~

You have really got to loosen up and relax, that is if you want to enjoy your life.  It doesn’t matter what you are facing at any given point, the very best way to handle anything is to back up, calm down, relax and then move forward.

 Just Be Yourself ~   

When you are just being yourself it feels right to you and it feels right to those in your company.  You are you and you have every right to be you.  How could you be anything but you and do it well and feel good about it anyway? 

Have more fun ~

Let’s just pretend that this go around is “the” go around.  If that is so, it is up to you to make it the best possible experience.  You are going to hit snags, bumps in the road, and freaking seemingly bottomless pits ~ it is part of the growth and living process.  But what are you going to do with the other 85% of your lifetime?  I am all for having more fun!  It feels good and makes your life worth living, and it helps you to move through the not-so-hot times more easily because you know what is on the other side.

You are missing the point of life if you are waiting for the day, the event or the person to come so you can enjoy it. 

This is your life.

 Now is the time to be living the life you have always wanted to live.

ANGEL READING SPECIAL FOR SFPNNers from Jeanette

Howdy Folks,

Just a quick reminder: if you've ever considered getting an Angel Reading, Theta Healing, or Reiki, now is the time!  J

My rates for 2008 have increased but if you book a session now through February 13th, 2008, and I'll give you a $25 discount. That's a Special SFPNN rate of $125 for a one hour session dedicated to your well being which includes an e-mail recap for Angel Readings and Theta Healing and a complimentary set of Angel Cards with all Angel Readings.  (This is a great deal because I usually average 3 hours of my time for your one hour reading when all is said and done!)

Folks, when I work with you, I give you my full attention and channel God's and the angels' love and energy for your guidance and healing.  The results are always positive.  Here's what some of my clients have said:

"I read slowly and carefully of your email. Going over all of the details and it is absolutely amazing the correlations between all of the stuff that has been happening in my life..."

"You are truly exceptional and very special - and I have been to A LOT of psychics.    I'd have to say sadly I've left 90% of them feeling that it was a total waste of money.  You were definitely someone I would highly recommend and felt it was probably the best money I had spent in a long time!   I loved your method, gentleness and message delivery... What an absolute pleasure and just so refreshing in the way it was handled.  I then came home to an in depth, typed out word for word rundown of the reading.  None would have taken the time to do that - ever!   Amazing to have and to read back over when needed."

"You truly are a Godsend! There are many things that empathically I pick up from you.  I truly feel blessed to have learned from you today.  My heart, my feelings, (my angels?) tell me to tell you to keep doing what you are doing for it is a mighty, and beautiful call."

I share the above comments with you because I'm the type of person who needs "proof" to believe in the unseen.   There are many more comments like the ones above - all of which were sent WITHOUT solicitation but in gratitude.  Good things happen when we allow the divine to move through our lives and that's what I love helping folks do!

2.      7Wednesday WORD — by Diane, The California Dreamer

CREATE YOUR LIFE

As we enter into this new year, I am going to explore new ideas and concepts on how to create a life worth living.

Last week I talked about making a "vision board."  Did you think about making one?  Have you started?  If you did begin, did you find it easier than you thought possible with ideas coming to you without even trying?  Having made several over the years, that is how it works for me.

The more I started thinking about my theme for this year, it became very clear what all of us desire…

 A life worth living.

Yes, it sounds very simple, but many of us don't give a lot of thought to exactly what it means to us.  Say "Creating a Life Worth Living" with me.  The opportune words here are "creating” and “worth." 

It is up to each one of us to create our own life.  Nobody can live our lives for us.  We are responsible for how we live and what we desire.

 It starts when we figure out just what we desire and what is important to us. That is why having a vision helps.  Once you figure out exactly what you want, placing it in front of you helps to make it happen.

You need to NAME it and then CLAIM it. Believe what you desire is important and possible. 

The Bible says it is done unto us as we believe.  If we have the belief we don't deserve or won't receive good... well, guess what? We don't.  When we believe, and know without a doubt, we can have and be all that we desire, we get just that! 

We often need to get out of the box of our current reality and try something new, become willing to experiment with our life and try something different.  It can be scary to step out and try new things or go new places.  We might have been told if we do something we will fail or it won't turn out good.  Or doubts may have been placed in our mind questioning why we think we could do that. Or have that.  Or be that.  Those thoughts are just fear holding us back. Many times the fear of others’ thinking, not even our own.

To have a life worth living we have to let go of our fear and doubt that we can't have or do something.  Replace all those negative thoughts with positive ones.  There might be days we remind ourselves a hundred times that we can be and have it all. 

To have a life worth living, we have to put effort into what we want.  We have to take action to achieve our desires.  Many times once we initially take that first step with the first action, the rest becomes second nature and we don't even realize we are doing something so different.  And before you know it, we have accomplished just what we set out to do.

Spend some time thinking about the concept of what a "life worth living" looks and feels like to you.  Keep working on your vision board.  Enjoy this project, make it fun. As you work on your vision board and “a life worth living,” I would love to hear from you about what you have discovered.

Believe a life worth living is possible.  After all -- it is all up to you.
