A Channelled Message on Love

I’m going to share a channeled message on Love, in its very many aspects and how important it is to our human experience as well as our spiritual journey.

I recently sat down with the subject, in meditation, in an effort to understand some personal issues I’ve been facing, as a mother.

So, I shall share with you a positive, and uplifting channeled message on love. It’s my hope you’re able to get something from it, as I did.

“We look for love in so many places and we often get disappointed; because what we are looking for is not really what we want. Instead of love, we want to be appreciated, we want someone to tell or show us that we are wonderful, deserving of their attention, gifted, talented, have something to offer that someone else wants and is willing to give us their love in return for our efforts. So we look for these things in every situation, taking on demanding jobs, relationships and life situations knowing that if we struggle hard enough we will eventually find the love we seek. But we’re also afraid, not of love itself but that we won’t get it. Our fear of love can be as great as our desire for it.

How many times have we tried to make things work, believing that if we tried harder, gave it one more chance, changed ourselves, that we would get the satisfaction we seek. And sometimes it works out the way we want. But the price we pay can be very high. Sometimes it doesn’t work and we are disappointed, disillusioned, believing that we are deficient in some area, not able to gain the recognition we seek, not finding the value that we hope will be given to us in response to our efforts. Our fear of love has just been proven to be true and we believe that we don’t deserve it or won’t receive it, no matter how hard we try.

Our fear of love manifests in many ways. We choose partners who are not able to meet our need for love, we don’t pursue our dreams, we don’t accept a challenging job out of fear that we will fail, we don’t follow opportunities because we are afraid of disappointment, that we will be inadequate or that we simply can’t move away from wherever we are. Or we can fear that others won’t accept us, understand us or acknowledge our efforts. The fear of love often manifests as self-sabotage, when we stop ourselves from succeeding out of fear that we will fail.

The fear of love can be healed by understanding our real reason for wanting to be loved and moving out of the focus on ‘needing’ love, in all of its forms, to ‘being’ love for ourselves. The world is an illusion, a hologram of our beliefs, perceptions, thoughts, words and yes, especially our fears. When we acknowledge the presence of unconditional love in every aspect of our being, we face the world with an outpouring of love and the world reflects that back to us. What is your fear of love? Where are you afraid that you will not receive the love you need in the form of value, acceptance, and respect? Release your need for love and be the love that you seek for yourself and watch it unfold in every aspect of your reality.

Our life path is one of remembering – remembering who we are, where we are from, our power, our gifts and our divinity. We forget, that is until we remember, that we are from unconditional love, it is how we were created and it is where we will find the love we are looking for. But until we remember, and that can take a lifetime, we spend our life looking for love and looking for proof that we are loved in everything we do and everyone we connect with. The problem is we look for it from outside of us instead of reconnecting with the source of unconditional love from the inside and reflecting it to the world.

We find love when we are love; when we know, beyond a doubt, that we have a wellspring of unconditional love inside of us. How many disappointments and disillusionments could we avoid, how much unhappiness could we prevent ourselves from experiencing if we could just remember that one thing. We are the love that we seek. But we want proof of that love before we believe it is inside of us. And we seek it from every situation and person we encounter. Sometimes we find it, other times we don’t. But we keep looking, hoping that it will eventually find us and we will have proof that we are deserving and worthy of love.

We look for proof of love in everything. And we also look for proof that love doesn’t exist, or there isn’t enough of it or there isn’t any for us by looking for it in people and in situations that don’t or can’t give us what we need. There’s nothing wrong with them-they give us what they have to give. And they are simply reflecting our own love back to us. Every person we meet connects with us through our vibration of love and responds to the level of self-love we have. Instead of looking for love from that place where we need proof from others, why not look for proof of how much we love ourselves?

The world is an illusion that can only give us proof of love to the extent that we love ourselves. Looking for proof from a place of lack of love will yield disappointing results. Instead, we could look for love from the place of deep, lasting, unlimited unconditional love that is within each of us. Then the world has no choice but to reflect that love back to us. This week, look for proof of love in your world but from the place where you know that you are loved unconditionally and without limits. See what the world will give you as proof of love when you look for love from the place where you are love, you have all of the love you could ever need and are loved beyond all measure.

Our life journey is focused on getting love, not in a romantic sense, but receiving the validation, valuation, respect, honor and appreciation that we want from others. We can spend a lifetime seeking this until we learn two things-when we settle for less than what we want we block the flow of love to us and being able to detach and release is as important as being willing to give love in order to receive it. The love we want is really the physical manifestation of the unconditional love that we know in spirit and the love we receive from others is merely a mirror of the love we have for ourselves. So how do we get the love we want when our experience may show us that we get some love, but not always what we want and we are afraid that if we let that go we will not have another chance at getting or receiving love?

We all want everyone to love us because we are a good person. We want everyone to treat us as we treat them and to acknowledge us for who we are. And we are not always selective. We cast out our ‘love net’ and hope that we will catch something that will meet at least a small portion of our needs. The belief that we should be happy with what we get and not complain or expect more is what causes us to settle for less than what we really want. We get the love we want when we narrow our focus to that alone and let everything else move on.

Sometimes our lesson is to learn to hold out for what we truly want and to say ‘no’ to those things that are not right for us. We are being challenged to acknowledge that what others give us is the best that they have to give. If that is not right for us, it’s not that something is wrong with them, we need to look at the energy that we are putting out and look at where we are accepting less than we desire or deserve. There is a lot of pressure on us at this time to detach from those things that are not right for us, that take our energy, do not bring us joy and create drama and chaos.

Two things cannot occupy the same energetic space at the same time. So if we are in any situation that does not meet our needs, its replacement cannot manifest until we are willing to detach and let go. We must also be committed to our joy and to what we want in our lives, not allowing ourselves to get sidetracked into situations and relationships where we have to settle. Trusting that the Universe brings us exactly what we ask for, believe we can have what we want and remaining true to ourselves is so important in this process. And when we love ourselves enough to release our attachments to everything and everyone that does not give us exactly what we want we can get the love we want and as much as we need.

When we are looking for love we are looking for more than romance. We want approval, appreciation, to be valued, respected and treated with dignity. We want someone to tell us that we are wonderful, beautiful (or handsome), talented, and deserving of their time and attention. But love is a two way street and while we may be ready for love, we must also be ready to love in order to receive the love we want from others. What that means is we must be able to give love in the same way we want others to give it to us. If we are not, we will look for love and feel like it eludes us in one way or another.

When we feel that receiving love will be the answer to all of our problems we are ready to receive love but we aren’t necessarily ready to give it. And this may be holding us back. And here love is more than romance, it is any relationship in which we are valued, appreciated and given the respect and honor that we want from others. This could be within a job, our family, friends or any situation where we interact with others. The question for us is: are we ready to give love to those who may not be loving with us?

Sometimes we have to be willing to be the first to give love, to offer kindness, compassion and forgiveness, even to people who have not given those things to us in the past. And to ourselves, because we won’t receive more love from others than we are willing to give to ourselves. Our willingness to practice our spiritual path-to be unconditionally loving and compassionate with everyone, determines whether we will have love in our lives. Here we are dealing with Universal law, which is very exacting. We must be absolutely willing to give what we want to receive from others. Without exception.

As Light Workers we set an example for others. We are the spiritual leaders, teachers and healers. We must be willing to set the energy for what we want in our lives, even if that means acting as if it exists before it actually does. And it also involves living in the present moment, where it doesn’t matter what someone did to us in the past, we must practice compassion with everyone in this moment. That doesn’t mean accepting bad behavior, just being willing to see everyone with compassion and unconditional love. If they can’t meet that energy they will quickly drop away. When we are ready to love we will receive as much love, and more, as we are willing to give to others and to ourselves.

In our search for love we look in many different places and to many different people to find the value, respect, admiration and proof of love that we seek. This is often a difficult journey because the more we look for love without having it sourced from our inner being, the more we find people and situations that are not loving. We can create limitless love in our lives, a never-ending, unfolding stream of love that blesses us with the love we want to receive. Getting from here to there is easy-the level of love we have at any time is a mirror of our level of acceptance, of ourselves and of others.

Few of us are happy with our physical appearance. We all wish we were taller, shorter, thinner, had a different hair color. And we can also be unhappy with our financial situation, career track, job, partner, lifestyle, location-the list can be very long. We don’t accept ourselves and are unhappy with who we are. This unhappiness creates its own energy in our lives and limits our ability to create love in all of its forms. When we can accept every aspect of who we are as a starting place for transformation, no matter what our current situation looks like, we can begin to manifest the love we want in every area of our life.

When we don’t accept ourselves we don’t accept others either. We can find fault with everyone from our family, partner, the clerk at the grocery store, our co- workers, the beautiful magazine models or celebrities and blame them for our state of unhappiness. When we can accept others exactly as they are and be without judgment or criticism of them, we open the door to creating limitless love in our life. We don’t have to like everyone and probably won’t. We just have to accept them and allow them to be who they are.

When we look for love we must start from love. Starting from any other position will create more of any lack of love we already have. This is where trust and faith are important because we often have to trust that our efforts will yield results before we have actual proof. So we may have to endure a little more lack of love before the love begins. Or not-we are living in a time of instant manifestation, where every thought has instant creative ability. To receive love, we have to begin with love, loving ourselves, our current situation, what we see as our faults and start loving every part of our reality. The results can be instantaneous and we can create a flow of limitless love in every area of our life and begin creating the reality of our dreams.”
