Good Day A.L.I.E.N.s! I’m really excited to share this blog with you all today. I hope this helps some of you the way it has helped me. As, I have been going on this journey of acceptance and self-love there are so many levels to it. I’m learning it is not as simple as you waking up one day and voila!! You love yourself. It’s the work of removing layer after layer. Learning to accept and not accept the right things about yourself and others. It’s about looking within first and not outside of yourself. It’s asking those hard questions and it doesn’t all come at one time. This peeling of layers comes in parts which makes it a bit easier because you aren’t being bombarded at once although it may feel like it.
The past couple of weeks after sharing my journey about loving my body, accepting my body as is for now, I began to realize that I am a Queen. Now, I know it is popular for men and women to call themselves “Kings” and “Queens”, but to be honest, I thought it was bullshit. Just in reference to myself. I mean it seems like everyone jumps on this band wagon of putting labels on themselves to make themselves feel better, but I have always been the type to see something then sit in it until it hits me. I just didn’t want to be the usual “sheep mentality” to start calling myself something I really didn’t understand or embrace. Then Covid-19 hit us and forced us to isolate and meditate, well at least that is what it did for me. As, I progress through this time I realize that being a “Queen” and “King” is not just a label, it’s a position that we are given, but there are steps and processes to get there. Even when you study royal families, you may have been born into the “royal family”, but you still have be prepared and groomed for the “crown”. It still isn’t automatic. Now I want you to know as I am typing this I am being blown away because they words I was not prepared to type, but they are just flowing from my Spirit. If we look at the example of the series “The Crown” on Netflix, Queen Elizabeth had to learn how to walk, talk, and think like the Queen these ways were not automatic for her. There is a protocol.
So, during my journey I was led to the scripture, “9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;” I Peter 2:9. Now, I have read this many times before. I have heard preachers preach this from the pulpit, but I never really connected with it until now. When the spirit led me to this, I thought okay, wait… I am royalty forreal, like I have rights and shit. Like… wait!! And in that moment I realized… I am a Queen. I have a crown… well I’ll be… Ha. In the midst of my excitement and flattery, I then stopped to ask the Creator of the Universe, “What does this mean?” What does being a Queen mean?” And this whole time He was preparing me for this very moment. Although I am still in the learning and growing process the position of Queen is so much more intricate than we think. There are levels to this thang, man. LEVELS!
The first is where I am and have been for the past year… Loving me first. Being able to accept myself for where I am even if it’s uncomfortable. There are so many stages I would like to speed through right now, but I can’t. I have to walk it out and keep moving. Once you begin the journey of loving yourself, then you have to learn how to walk it, talk it and think it. So, what does all of this have to do with the “Queen’s Speech” well as I embrace myself, which is the “think it” stage, I am learning to “speak like a Queen” meaning. Negative speech lowers my standing. I can’t afford anyone or any situation to rob me of what’s mine. Once you become aware of who you are, you then walk through the phase of being okay with who you are and once you are okay, then the speaking that thang part comes. Because now, your point of view has been transformed, so automatically the way you talk is transformed.
This makes me so excited because now that my thinking and speaking has been upgraded on different levels, I will begin to walk this new Queenship out!! So what levels are you vibrating on right now? Does your thinking match up with what you are saying? I just want to encourage all of you that we were all chosen for royalty. That doesn’t mean, one is better than the other, it just means we are all on a journey. When you can righteously speak life to yourself, you can speak life to others. So, if right now, you feel things aren’t moving for you, check your thought life, what are you thinking? Referencing the series “The Crown” again, when Queen Elizabeth was chosen to be Queen, they constantly drilled into her that she needed to think differently. They consistently reminded her that she was not the same person as she was before, that now what her new position in life she could not carry over the same habits and even the same people.
I swear this blog is doing its own thing today! Just know that before we can be it we have to SEE IT, THINK IT, KNOW IT!! And our words have to match that.
