FOUNDATION

WE NEED LOVE FIRST FOR OUR SELF - EVEN BY GIVING LOVE, THIS ACT IS FOR OUR OWN NEEDS!

DO YOU KNOW YOUR PRIMARY LOVE LANGUAGE?

 

The information below is a summary of what you need to think about.  The most important point in the book and with Self Directed Faith is to understand YOURSELF - FIRST.  Do you know what you need to know that you are LOVED?  Do you know WHY you have this NEED?   What you experienced in your childhood when you received love from your mom, dad, uncles, aunts, friends, family, the environment - you have identified and placed this information in your body, mind and soul as ways you accept and give love.

As you move forward with life you have come to experience love and give love in a SEQUENCE.  This is your PREFERRED LOVE LANGUAGE SEQUENCE - your language for love giving and accepting love from others.   Every person in the world needs love and acceptance.

 

STEP 1: Please take a moment to FOCUS ON YOURSELF and go DEEP within YOURSELF to identify your specific LOVE LANGUAGE SEQUENCE.  

STEP 2: Please take a moment to FOCUS ON YOURSELF and go DEEP within YOURSELF to identify your SPOUSE's LOVE LAGUAGE SEQUENCE.

STEP 3: If you see that you are exactly alike, you are blessed that both of you are able to love  and accept love the same way, while others with different love language sequence, you have to understand how to communicate and give love to your spouse and help your spouse learn to process and give you love the way you need it.

As you go through this exercise, while you can get marriage counseling, friends counseling, family counseling, advice from books, internet, other sources, -- the decisions are for YOU TO MAKE and there is no shortcuts to a successful marriage / relationship.   Self Directed Faith, it all starts with YOU.

Getting to know yourself, love yourself first, and then learn how to love your spouse and others around you. You cannot change others and what you have chosen within YOUR SUBS-CONSCIENCE as the love language sequence, that is how you will accept love.   All other options, it's likely you will feel unfulfilled.

 

 

BALANCED PRAYER FOR LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE

In the name of my "Father in Heaven" and "Mother Earth where I reside", bring my spouse and I the closeness which we both long for here and now.

I accept my core love language to be ____________________________, and my spouse (NAME) to be ______________________________, moving forward I will give my spouse, love, based on their core love language, _____________________________, even if I do not receive my spouses love the same way that I need to be loved.

I have FAITH in the Universe that I am loved, I am complete, I am filled with joy, I am filled with confidence, I am filled with peace, I am filled with positive energy.  I feel the LOVE I NEED, I HAVE THE LOVE I NEED, RIGHT NOW, I HAVE what I NEED to FILL LOVED and through my faith I am complete!

As I speak this prayer with conviction, I feel the joy of love within me, it fills me with light, it fills me with understanding, it fills me with happiness.  I have the awakening from my "Father in Heaven" that fills me with LOVE, PEACE and ACCEPTANCE I NEED.

I give my "Father in Heaven" all of my worries, my concerns, my sadness, my doubts, my fears.

I release my heart, my spirit to my spouse to be FREE and allow the Universe to bring us the love we both desire.

I BELIEVE THIS TO BE TRUE BECAUSE I ALREADY FEEL THE LOVE WITHIN ME AND AROUND ME, RIGHT NOW and FOREVER THIS SHALL CONTINUE AS I LIVE MY LIFE.

Amen!

{The above is a balanced prayer example, design the prayer that speaks to you and you will want to do this prayer once per day and cycle through this for six weeks - you should see and feel that you will head in the right direction that is correct for your specific need.
