HOW WAS YOUR DAY?Me: God, can I ask you a question?God: Sure.Me: Promise you won't get mad?God: I promise.Me: Why did you let so much stuff happen to me today?God: What do you mean?Me: Well, I woke up late.God: Yes.Me: My car took forever to start.God: Okay.Me: At lunch they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait.God: Hmmm.Me: On the way home my phone went dead just as I picked up a call.God: Okay.Me: And on top of all that, when I got home I just wanted to soak my feet in my new foot massager and relax, but it wouldn't work!!! Nothing went right today! Why did you do that?God: Well, let me see. The Death Angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of the other angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that.Me: (humbled): OH...GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that would have hit you if you were on the road.Me: (ashamed)God: The person who made your first sandwich today was sick and I didn't want you to catch what he has.I knew you couldn't afford to miss work.Me: (embarrassed): Ok...God: Your phone went dead because the person who was calling was going to give false witness about what you said during that call. I didn't even let you talk to them so that you would be covered.Me: (softly) I see, God.God: Oh, and that foot massager had a short that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark.Me: I'm sorry God.God: Don't be sorry, just learn to trust me in all things, the good and the bad.Me: I will trust you.God: And don't doubt that MY plan for your day is always better than your plan.Me: I won't, God. And let me just tell you God, thank you for everything today.God: You're welcome, child. It was just another day being your God, and I love looking after my children

Below are 5 secret steps that will help you take the leap of faith to let love into your heart again and again and again.
1. Make the conscious choice to let down your "Love Guard" - It simply takes sticking to one solid conscious intention to totally transform your life. When you decide that you're done hiding, protecting, and emotionally defending yourself in any way, you'll find that everyone in the world is actually a potential lover or friend. When you're willing to be real with others, people respect that and step forward to be real with you. As long as you have your "love guard" up, you can only show a fake fearful mask to the world, and this is what's causing your authentic lovable self to remain hidden from you. When you can devote every moment of your day to letting in love, the greatest miracle will happen. You'll stop being a defensive human being and will be a light of unconditional love and true acceptance towards your partner, family, friends and community. You'll know your "love guard" has fallen away as you'll feel a thousand times lighter inside. It's from this lighter freer space that you'll naturally create authentic loving relationships throughout your life.
2. Affirm out loud to the Universe that "I am lovable!" - Sometimes we simply need to hear a strong solid convincing voice to speak a truth before we can believe it actually is true. When you state out loud with authentic conviction that you are lovable, this message sinks deeply into your subconscious mind and begins to manifest in your life. To authentically say, "I am lovable" you may first need to understand why you are lovable and I'll tell you why. When you were born, you were an innocent helpless little baby. You depended on everyone around you to survive. It was because of people's love for you that you survived and are alive today. Yes, you were lovable from the very beginning and this innocence is still inside you now. All the ego trips or negative attitudes that you may have covered over yourself through the years are not who or what you truly are. You are simply a child born out of love. You were also generated from an orgasm which is one form of love. You are a sweet divine soul who came from love, and thus is always deserving of love.
3. Ask the Universe, God and your Higher Self for help. - If perhaps you are more the intellectual type who thinks you can mentally command your walls to come down to let in love, you may be in for a surprise. If you want to start letting in love yet your walls just won't budge, you may need to surrender to a higher power and trust that it will protect you, and keep you safe from any future pain. Asking for help signifies that the ego/mind has no power, control or ability to create what it wants. When it comes to real love, total surrender is the only way. It is only through letting go of the mind that surrender actually happens. To truly let in the greatest love, you must let go of using your head and live your life from your heart. A continual surrender is the essential key to start living from the heart which is where you'll find the source of love.
4. Be willing to vulnerable, naked and rejected. - Trust that you don't need a fortress around your heart to be safe anymore. Whatever you think is protecting you from the slightest possible pain is actually what's blocking the softest sweetest most gentle healing love from finding its way inside. The willingness to be a transparent human being is the most courageous act you can do with your life. Be willing to experience whatever level of exposure, nakedness, or rejection that you're afraid to experience, and you'll find that what you were really running from was only in your imagination.
5. Totally Surrender to the Source of Love Inside You. - Where is the Source of Love? Is it outside of you or inside of you? Look deep inside yourself, and when you do, notice where is the source of this very moment. This is where you'll find the source of love. At the very center of your being is a very special experience which you've been waiting for your entire life. It's the most enlightening place you'll ever discover! Your ego/mind won't easily admit this because how embarrassing that would be for the ego! It has been relentlessly searching for years for something truly gratifying, and so it doesn't want to see that an amazing divine love is closer to you than your next breath of air. So for you to honestly find the very source of love right now, the ego/mind has to stop looking "out there" and start relaxing in here. For real joy to enter your life, the ego has to surrender completely to the source of love right now. This comes not from a place of losing or being defeated, but from a higher more enlightened perspective where you can finally relax and truly come home.
