""You are my beloved son; with you I am well pleased"" (Mk. 1:11). Those were the words the Father spoke to the Son at His baptism in the Jordan. Those are the very same words the Father speaks to us every day: ""You are my beloved son. You are my beloved daughter. With you I am well pleased."" An identity crisis plagues the world today. We have taken it upon ourselves to define the fundamental truth of the human experience - who we are. It is time to rediscover and to reclaim our truest identity.Within the pages of this book are lessons and reflections I have learned as a beloved son of the Father. Through encountering the Father through the silence, Scriptures, and conversations with people I have come to a deeper understanding of who I am and the love with which the Father has created me and loves me. I invite you to allow the Father speak those words of truth and affection to you today and every day and to believe it: ""You are my beloved one. With you I am well pleased.""
