Presence
I pause for a moment and think of the love and the grace that God
showers on me, creating me in his image and likeness, making me his temple....
Freedom
Lord, may I never take the gift of freedom for
granted. You gave me the great blessing of freedom of spirit. Fill my spirit
with Your peace and
Your joy.
Consciousness
In God's loving presence I unwind the past day, starting from now and
looking back, moment by moment. I gather in all the goodness and light, in
gratitude. I attend to the shadows and what they say to me, seeking healing,
courage, forgiveness.
The
Word of God
Luke 24:32
They said to each other, ‘Were not our hearts burning within us while he
was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us?’
Conversation
Conversation requires talking and listening. As I talk to Jesus
may I also learn to be still and listen. I picture the gentleness in His
eyes and the smile full of love as he gazes on me. I can be totally
honest with Jesus as I tell Him of my worries and my cares. I will open
up my heart to Him as I tell Him of my fears and my doubts. I will ask
Him to help me to place myself fully in His care, to abandon myself to Him,
knowing that He always wants what is best for me.
