Many of you, in a desire to take back control or keep yourself safe after a situation has hurt you, have taken vows that you will never do something again. It might be, “I will never love again” or “I will never trust again” or “I will never let anyone get too close again” or any other declaration of denial.

We wish for you to examine any of these you may still be carrying. You will have a recognition, a knowingness, or perhaps have a memory surface of a time you have been hurt. Once you are aware of what you may be carrying, we suggest you then ask, “Does this really reflect my current wisdom?” “Does this support or hinder my expansion?” “Does this match who I am today?” “Does this move me toward what I really want or does it keep me stuck in old energy?”

You heal old limiting beliefs with new declarations of self. You might wish to replace, “I will never trust again” with “I trust wisely and with discernment”. You might switch “I will never love again” with “It is safe for me to love and be loved, in fact, that is what I am here to do”. You might change “I will never let anyone get too close again” with “Connection now supports me in all ways and feels wonderful”.

Such separating vows and declarations were created by the knee jerk reactions of your wounded self. Is that part of you qualified to direct your entire incarnation? You are ready to be the wise, healed, and benevolent leader of your life, Dear Ones. Isn’t it time to assume that role? ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young
