Accept Yourself just the way you are

Dear one, in order to love another without reservation or conditions, it is necessary that you learn to truly love and accept yourself just the way you are.

Forgive yourself for all past mistakes, and for all present and future failings. Accept yourself as the God-given personality you are; hardly perfect, but knowing perfection is the ultimate destiny in eternal life.

In this earth life you are waking up and becoming more aware of the true purpose of life; to be the best you can be under all circumstances.

Life teaches you lessons through which to learn mastery over self; be it over greed, jealousy, gluttony, or addictions of any kind—anything that holds you from the greatest good and attainment, and this is to be achieved without using any dishonest means, or using another person to attain your goals in life, unless such help is freely given.

You are learning to travel with Me, your Guide within. This is what Jesus mastered when He walked the earth as a Man among men.

Remember the most important lessons He taught, and lived, were to love God first, and to learn to love and accept yourself as God loves and accepts you, to love your neighbor as yourself, and to forgive each and everyone who wrongs you.

You all live in a love and mercy-oriented Universe, as your Ruler, Michael, so lovingly and eloquently displayed in His life here as Yoshua ben Joseph, Jesus of Nazareth.

His life was, and still is, a triumph that all humans can aspire to in their short but intense lives in the flesh as they are lived here on this planet.

Jesus, even as a young boy, often sought the Still Small Voice within when He chose to be away from others to better commune with His Father in Heaven.

So, too, can you follow His example and practice this as often as needed, for I am always with you.
