Chapter 1: Love Me First 

 

Love Me First

​

Have you ever pretended to like something just to be nice or perhaps because you felt like it was the right thing to do? We pretend all the time and most times in our pretending we are just imitating what we think truth looks like. The problem occurs when we pretend so much that we do not know the difference between reality and acting. Often times we even pretend with love. We must ask if we are willing to disrespect the truth in order to make ourselves feel better about our lies?

 

The real question is do we really know what truth is and therefore, do we really know what love is? If we do not love our selves how do we know what true love feels like? There is no way to love yourself without accepting all of who you are, flaws and all. If you have not accepted yourself can you accept another? 

​

Love me first is not about an external love but an internal love. Love me first is about loving yourself first. Imagine the inner you changing, growing and evolving and pleading with you to love yourself first but you only see your failure and not the victory. Through all the attempts to become a better you, you still have not accepted yourself, you still have not embraced yourself. It is time to fall in love with you and recognize you are a different person than you were last year or even yesterday but those days are what got you here so now you can celebrate how far you have come. Everything within you can be used to lift you into your rightful place as a Divine Woman. 

​

It is not possible to receive everything that is yours, if you do not first accept all that you are. 

 

 

 

 

Who is Woman? 

​

To understand your truth and how great you are, it important to know who you are in the form that God made you. Women hold an incredible purpose in the larger picture of existence. It is not just the physical nature of wearing make up or even our extraordinary physiques, but it is simply who we are as women. 

​

Some may think that being a woman is doing certain chores, having a particular mannerism, having a different vocal range, etc. but that is not necessarily accurate. All these things can be contributors to the nature of Woman but they do not have to be what makes a woman herself. Woman, female or feminine energy has the Spiritual and Physical quality receiving, as Men are designed to be givers. 

​

As a mans spiritual and physical nature is to give life, the woman is a receiver of life with the ability to birth what has been given to her. In this case Men are givers and Women are receivers. Thus, being the reason God is often considered a man, because He is the Ultimate Giver. Holy scriptures detail that when we enter God's presence everyone will be His bride, including a man. This is because once we all are met with the Ultimate Giver we all become receivers, or as a women being able to birth what is given and what a beautiful place to be. Being a woman is a huge honor as we can not become givers until we have first received.

 

Woman cultivate all life and produce the creations of God and man, which is a fantastic role and a high calling in itself! When it comes to Self Love and understanding who we are, we must understand the purpose of our make up in all of creation.

​

Receiving and birthing is not only in terms of pregnancy and creating human life but cultivating everything in life including ideas and energy. This being said women, be careful of what you are receiving because it can directly impact what is being put out into the world. However, keep an open heart and be receptive to what is yours, you do not want to be closed off to your gifts and blessings from the Ultimate Giver.

​

Some of us may have heard that energy is masculine and feminine and we are made up of both male and female energy, this is true. But why do we show up on Earth as the physical beings we are? We do not have masculine and feminine energy but masculine and feminine energy have us. These energies are that man and woman in union who form as one a produce a baby; you. This man and woman are found in the beginning of mankind in the Spiritual and Physical World and in our energy.

​

Our purpose spans back to who we are in all of existence and in an eternal universe we must embrace the way we show up in a given lifetime to learn the lessons designed for that particular truth. Avoiding those lessons will cause us to repeat them until we can embrace who we are in the form that we are given each lifetime, after lifetime, after lifetime.
