who can pedal on her own, ask for help when needed and not worry about other people’s pace. You’ve lived a false version of yourself before Me...and now layer upon layer of your masks are coming off ...and what I see is that beautiful woman wholly and truly being Dee.
You’ve never been so close to Me...and our feet have never been so much in sync on My path for you! Keep pedaling, beautiful one—- even when it feels like I’m hiding around a corner or have left! Keep listening for My Voice of Fatherly approval. Keep feeling My hugs of Motherly nurture and keep receiving My kisses of Me being your most Intimate Lover! Please know I am here now and will be until the end. I AM at the start, in the middle and at the End and all of it is for glory and beauty.
