Opening the Heart & Inviting Divine Energy
This week, I’m working on offering more love to myself.
I give grace to others so easily, but when it comes to me… I still hold onto pain and grudges. Spirit is showing me it’s time to let that go—not to excuse the hurt, but to free myself from carrying it.
Even when my heart is heavy, I still pour into others.
That’s part of my light. But I’m learning: just because I shine doesn’t mean I have to burn out.
This week, I’m cutting off manipulative and negative spirits.
No more guilt. No more draining cycles.
I can pray for people from a distance without being the resource they abuse.
Walking in Divine Light doesn’t mean I never feel anger.
It means I choose love over violence, even when my hood instincts tell me to match disrespect with fire.
That’s growth. That’s power.
The message Spirit gave me this morning?
I’m still the same me—I’m just growing. And my light irritates a lot of people’s demons.
So be it.
I walk forward with fierce grace, protected peace, and love that no one can manipulate.
Love and Light to all. And so it is.
