Trusting Yourself

Greetings Dear Ones,

Trusting yourself is the pinnacle of your experience in this reality. Since the beginning of your time here, you have been focused on depending on people outside of yourself. It starts innocently enough, when you are young you learn to feel dependent on your parents. As a child you have few options other than to learn to trust your parents, or others in your household, to take care of you, to provide for your needs and ultimately to love you. But along your journey to adulthood, your ability to maintain this outside level of trust becomes tested and often broken. You may feel betrayed by the very people whom you believed were meant to love you unconditionally.

So you learn to pick up the pieces and move on. You find others with similar experiences who confirm what you think you already know. The individuals you attract are only too willing recreate your expectations and a painful cycle of trust and betrayal plays itself out. Eventually you learn to “distrust trusting” altogether. You feel you especially cannot trust God, who obviously doesn’t care about you. If s/he did, things wouldn’t be this way. Or would they??

The truth is you came here with a fore-knowledge of what to expect from your parents and those in your immediate surroundings before you were born. While that memory is not intact upon your arrival here, the terms and conditions you established with your family on a soul level are very intact. As difficult as it may be to accept, these exact experiences were requested and agreed upon by you and your family to aid your soul’s growth once you got here. Everyone on the earth plane learns from their contrasting experiences. Indeed this is the soul purpose of living life in duality. It is precisely your reactions to the contrasting experiences which offer you an explosion of personal growth.

We cannot help but be pleased with the incredible progress you have made in the seemingly uncertain times you are currently abiding in. As more and more of you stop looking outward for people to trust and instead learn to truly trust yourselves, trust your feelings and especially trust your own desires, a huge shift will continue to take place in the consciousness of the planet. We are literally seeing a lightening of physical structures on your earth. These lighter structures are giving birth to new forms that haven’t existed before.

What we mean by this is as you turn inward and experience a more personalized version of the awesome power of your God-self, you are remolding your own energetic structure to one that not only vibrates at a higher frequency but one that also emits more and more light. This light, which is not visible to the human eye, is very apparent to other celestial beings. These beings cannot help but turn their attention to your world and shower it with more and more love. As more of you continue to “lighten up”, more of your world is open to receiving love which allows further shifts in human consciousness to occur.
To say this change is revolutionary is an understatement. This is an important moment in human evolution and in your world at large. Some of you will grow at such a rapid pace that miracles will become commonplace for you. No longer will “divine events” be dispensed by a few “special individuals” but will be offered by many people and available to all who seek them easily and effortlessly.

Those of you who truly understand what it means to trust yourself will develop a following of others who seek to learn the same. They will sense within you the deeper truth that you now hold clear. They are yearning for this clarity themselves. Teach only what you can share and avoid being their guru. The time for gurus, prophets and special teachers is long over. The new world will reveal its teachings through every man and woman willing to listen and be led. The new teachings will be learned through mutual sharing.

The issue of “trusting within” versus “trusting without” is an issue of focus on the present moment. You would be wise to spend every moment from this point on in the eternal now. You can do this by learning to trust your inner knowing; learning to understand the “signs” of your inner being and learning to listen to your “gut instincts”. All of these “inner knowings” will help you line up with your authentic self.

While we understand this may sound simpler than your experience may suggest, we encourage you not to give up. We urge you to move forward with hope-filled optimism. Know all will be well regardless of what your past experience would lead you to believe. Let the past lie undisturbed by current thought. Know that trusting yourself will allow you to move beyond your current limitations and lead you to a life of unprecedented joy. Isn’t it time to reap the rewards of all the joy you’ve planted in your past? We think it is and we’ll be watching with great excitement as you begin to experience the joy that is your natural birthright.

Much Love,

Archangel Michael
