If we don't know in the depths of our being that God calls us "beloved," we need to. And if we do know it, and it hasn't set us on fire, then we don't know it well enough. Take time daily to be alone and silent before God. And an awareness of your utter belovedness will become a reality for you.
What I wear is pants. What I do is live. How I pray is breathe... Up here in the woods is seen the Word. That is to say, the wind comes through the trees and you breathe it.
