Matthew 17:5 - While he was still speaking, look, a bright cloud overshadowed them and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my beloved son, listen to him."
Outside of what a bright cloud overshadowing someone would be like, I think we forget that Jesus is not the only beloved of God. Jesus is yes, and we are too. Whether you want to say we're adopted or natural children of God, we are God's beloved - and so is everyone else. There is so much love that we all have it and God still has love left over. Love will never run out. God's love will never run out at least. And we can be grateful and joyful for that!
What are we called to do in response to this abundant, overflowing, overshadowing love? Love God, love ourselves, love others. It always comes down to love.
