Treasured one, cherished and cared for
The place where you are seated in his heart
Loved never less only more
Bestowed from birth your belovedness
The earth has rubbed away the shine
And given names of otherness
His nature cannot else belie
By his atonement beloved transference
From this loved state,
Though often we try to deny,
You cannot escape
Belovedness is the gift
Your status never changing in his eyes
His Precious love do not resist
BE loved and love His Son
Then to others do impart,
Yahweh’s will to be done
Arise in this adoration
You are chosen by the Beloved
Bring now this belovedness to his creation
To all who are beloved of God in Rome, called
as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ.
As He says also in Hosea, "I WILL CALL THOSE WHO WERE NOT
MY PEOPLE, 'MY PEOPLE,' AND HER WHO WAS NOT BELOVED, 'BELOVED
For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred
us to the kingdom of His beloved Son,
AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Out of this place of belonging comes the power to help others belong. This is so beautifully written!
