beloved

"Let the beloved of the LORD rest secure in Him,

for He shields him all day long,

and the one the LORD loves rests between His shoulders."

~Deuteronomy 33:12 [NIV]

grace

"God of all grace, whose thoughts toward us are ever thoughts of peace and not of evil, give us hearts to believe that we are accepted in the Beloved; and give us minds to admire that perfection of moral wisdom which found a way to preserve the integrity of heaven and yet receive us there. We are astonished and marvel that One so holy and dread should invite us into Thy banqueting house and cause love to be the banner over us. We cannot express the gratitude we feel, but look Thou on our hearts and read it there. Amen."

~AW Tozer from Knowledge of the Holy
