Presence: The Embodiment
The Essence
Gate 4 is where you stop reaching and start being. You no longer speak to attract. You exist in the knowing. Reality recognizes you and bends accordingly. This is the still place where the WORD you have walked with becomes the WORD you live as.
The Story
Presence came when I accepted that "In the beginning was the WORD" was not only scripture. It was instruction. I stopped performing for outcomes and settled into identity. I am the WORD I choose. I released the fear of arrogance and the voice that said I was too much. I understood that alignment is not control. It is agreement with what God already said.
In this gate I gave myself permission to feel whole without evidence. To trust what I carry more than what I see. I let the noise fall away until only awareness remained. I noticed that life did not argue with presence. It responded to it. I did not push. I did not plead. I rested in the truth and life rearranged itself.
"My being is a declaration. I do not chase. I consent to what is true of me. I stand in the WORD and the world stands with me."
"Enter as you are and be what you have spoken. Breathe. Become quiet. Let the room adjust to your presence. What you are will do the work."
