God said:
I say you worry too much. Be. Before life, there is Being. You are obliged to Be, not to worry.
Now you are looking to free yourself from the past. No longer do you want to play the roles you assumed in the past.
You see now that too many people do not view you as you wish, as you are and, and as I see you, and as you deserve. So what that they are mistaken? Now you can relinquish others' hold on you. Now you begin to see that you are aligned with Me. It is good that you are beginning to see this.
A Sense of Lightness will come back as you feel less duty-bound to hurts of the past. Freedom spurs energy forward. It is freedom you are lacking. What keeps you back from freeing yourself from the bondage of the past? What prevents anyone?
You might call it inertia, yet it is not so much absence of energy as it is a stranglehold you hold on yourself.
You haven't freed yourself. You have objections to the past that you hold on to. You still stir an old soup. You were done with it a long time ago, yet the aroma lingers.
There is no one from the past who holds you back except you. You are the one. Others might like to keep you where they once put you as a habit, you understand. Some declare a status, and they hold onto it.
How is it that you can be carrying My light and yet blind yourself to your own God-given Self-Worth? You are so fearful of ego that you would ignore your worth. Okay, forget about your worth. Remember Mine.
