I am so excited about this year’s conference. The theme “I am my Beloved’s” is right we are at the moment. Over the next few weeks I thought it might be fun to publish a series of articles from Until Christ is Formed about the nature of love to open our hearts to what the Lord may want to lead us into during our conference time.  As St Dionysius put it “Love is God’s ecstatic, making us go out from ourselves: it does not allow the lover to belong any more to himself, but he belongs only to the Beloved.  Just think of that for a moment and then realise that You are your  Beloved’s and He is Yours what a thought!?!?  Moreover, He has brought you to His banqueting table and His banner over you is love.  The full extent of what that means is a truth yet to be fully realised by any of us, but the extent to which we see it and get it down into our souls is the extent to which we know wholeness and healing in this life.  For as we prepare for conference why don't you begin to meditate on The 16 wonderful truths about the character of love. I know that you'll  have difficulty believing them all but they're all true and they all apply to you. Have a read and then imagine that these 16 facts are your amazing multi-coloured coat.  We'll look at each charqacteristc one by one in the next few weeks - Agape
