God Giving Birth to You

Growing Up into Our Christ-Being this Christmas

“In my soul, God not only gives birth to me as a son or daughter, God gives birth to me as Godself, and Godself as me . . . our truest I is God.”
—Meister Eckhart

Throughout advent, we have been exploring how we are all mothers of God. This week, we might now come to see how we are also the children. You are the birther, and you are the born. Even, in many ways, what we are birthing is us! So, what does it mean that we too are the begotten of God?

Bearing & Birthing Wisdom during Advent

It is time to enter into the natal season of the soul! Advent is the time in the liturgical cycle that invites us to actively nurture the birth of new life – in us. It is the ripe time, the Kairos moment for consciously opening as much as we are able our inner faculties that are capable of life-bearing and life-giving wisdom that we long for. Advent is a time for spiritual midwifery.
