Divine Embrace speaks the language that will awaken us to the most amazing discovery!

The mystery, that was hidden for ages and generations,

is unveiled within us!

We are ransomed from our own ignorance

and from every lie that we believed about ourselves!

This book celebrates the initiative that God undertook to cancel
every possible definition of separation.

Emmanuel is introduced to an indifferent, often hostile humanity,

as their lover.

Their sins did not distract from this extravagant love.

Our calendar acknowledges the fact that more than 2000 years ago,

human history was divided into a before and after Christ.

While the vast expanse cannot even begin to measure or define God,

Their invisible image and likeness

Is made known in the only possible space

wherein their being can be fully and accurately be unveiled

human life

God is closer to you than your next breath!

Now, distance is replaced with oneness.

Nothing that you can ever do can make you more God's,

and nothing that God can ever do can make him more yours!

The thought of you intrigues your Maker with delight!
