Overview
If you have ever wondered if God is with you, if you have ever searched your heart for the reality of supernal Love, this book is for you. It is for those who doubt, who wonder, are you there, God? Can you hear me? In an age when egotistical thinking threatens our capacity to connect, these writings demonstrate a wise and benevolent Presence accessible to every human being. Write, Beloved, Write brings elegant answer to the radical inquiries and fears that characterize our separation from Source. It illumines a practice of listening within, becoming still, silent and open to the guidance of a living Jesus. MaryBeth Scalice, M.A. Ed.D., searches her heart for Him, finding not only is He here, but accessible and abundant with love for humanity. He longs to be known. He teaches us to hear the Voice for God and the words of our own authentic Self. Vulnerable and honest, these writings portray a deepening relationship and communion of human being with God. It is a love story, a journey of developing trust moving from personal limitation and mistakes, gently lifting into peak experiences of light, peace, and wholeness. No one can adequately explain the revelation of God. It is intensely individual and indescribably loving. Still there is a universal Voice that waits to be recognized, a felt-wisdom pointing to Truth. It calls from the heart opened and desirous. Joining with It we find not only our capacity to listen and receive but our power to speak and create. Jesus is the first, last and most beautiful Word ever spoken -- the Word of God. Through our willingness to receive His message our lives also become Word, human and divine, incarnate and extending, the living-breathing poetry of a supremely loving Author.
Description
Who does not long for a direct experience of God? Request it sincerely, desire it deeply and wait with patient expectation… He comes. The Voice for God ceaselessly whispers loving thoughts to our authentic Self. We receive His Word as we learn to quiet the mind and search our hearts. Write, Beloved, Write is an inspired book. MaryBeth Scalice, M.A. Ed.D. shares feelings and thoughts of Jesus. Resolute in seeking, she learns to listen, entering into communication with Divine Being. His answer to her persistent longing for God brings the awareness of her own Christ Self. Accepting His Word gives rise to joy and purpose. This is an uncommon love story. MaryBeth demonstrates desire transfigured and revealed not only within the heart of a human being but is God's Own fervent Call for His Creation. His Words beseech the reader, Come to Me, reach for Me, love Me... and speak of My Reality. Page after page extends His Reality and Love for humanity. A key theme throughout the teachings is accessibility. Jesus seeks an invitation to walk with us that we may be led out of fear and doubt. He establishes steps for self-forgiveness drawing us close to the Father and Spirit. He opens the mind to the unlimited possibilities of a Christ-awakened Life. Inner exploration brings elegant insights on vision, grace, hope, trust, mercy, purity, and light. Truth moves from chapter to chapter like a gently cresting wave increasing memory of self as child of God. Here the alchemy of human and Divine, heart and Spirit births the return of Christ in our hearts and on earth.
