You are the beloved.

You have been chosen to carry the light of Christ into the world.

You have been called to be an instrument of peace.

In you,

Our most high God has placed the Holy Spirit.

That Spirit will bear witness to the truth living in you.

You are the beloved of the beloved.

Any resistance in you to this reality is only because you have forgotten who you truly are.

You are loved beyond measure.

Just as Mary was chosen to be the bearer of Christ,

So you too are called to be the vessel that the Christ presence now pours through into the world.

Receive and believe.

You are the beloved of perfect creation.

Greater than anything your eyes may perceive in the universe around you.

Greater than the sun that warms and lights the earth by day and the radiant moon by night are you.

Lovelier than the stars that pierce the midnight heavens are you.

Braver than all creatures that run the earth or touch the sky are you.

Stronger than the tallest oak tree that can withstand the storms of a thousand years are you.

More glorious than the vast oceans whose mighty waves break in perfect time to gently meet the shore are you.

All of this is true of you.

Not because of what you have done or what you have failed to do.

Not for where you were born or who bore you.

Not for the wealth you have accumulated or lost.

Not for riches,

Poverty,

Status,

Or lack of.

You are the beloved because you were loved since before your time on earth existed.

Because you hold more glory in your being than all the galaxies put together.

Because one drop of your blood,

One tear that falls from your eye,

One breath that moves effortlessly through your lungs.

One beat of your heart is beyond brilliant.

Because every hair on your head,

Every cell that makes up the universe within you is the greatest miracle.

You are the beloved because the most high God who is love pours into you without measure.

Has placed the holiest spirit within your soul,

The spirit of wisdom and creation,

Of incarnation and resurrection.

Allow the false notion that you are anything less to disintegrate into non-existence.

For all has already been done for you and in you.

Now it is time for you to accept your identity and set forth the course of your true self,

The Christ presence within.

Soften your heart.

Redirect your mind.

Open your soul to this transforming truth within that you are the beloved of the most high God.

Receive,

Believe and live.

Let it be so.

Let it be now.

Let it be.

This is so powerful. So true. One of the most poignant points was that I have forgotten who I am. Maria, I have been following you for several years and always you speak to my heart and soul. I resonate with you and I am so grateful for your lessons. This is one I will listen to many, many times. Thank you!

Thank you, Maria, for your wonderful Christian contemplative and meditative practice 🕯🙏💞 Your spoken pace and tone is so comfortable to listen to and inwardly digest. I start each day with one of your gentle reflections on the Scriptural promises of divine Love's "knowing". I am very grateful 😌 Shelagh from Scotland UK
