The Father’s Blessing

Affirmation feels different when it’s public, out loud and in front of everyone—as at the Baptism of Christ and the Transfiguration, where God audibly affirmed Jesus as his beloved Son.   That affirmation becomes the foundation that allows Jesus to be free; to weep and be compassionate and angry, to be a revelation of the heart of God.   The hearts of the sons and daughters of God long to hear the Father speaking a blessing over them—a blessing that allows them to flourish and give of themselves unto death. This authentic flourishing comes from the grace of knowing who they are.   The Father is consistent in his message. Are we consistent in our response?   The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of generous donors like you. You can give at https://spiritjuice.org/supportpoco. Thank you!
