Daily Meditation
Begin each meditation with this prayer:
Father, you created me and put me on earth for a purpose.
Jesus, you died for me and called me to complete your work.
Holy Spirit, you help me to carry out the work for which I was created and called.
In your presence and name—
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—
I begin my meditation, May all my thoughts and inspirations have their origin in you and be directed to your glory.
Follow this format for each meditation:
READ the meditation prayerfully. (About one minute.)
THINK about what struck you most as you read the meditation. Why this? (About four minutes.)
SPEAK to God about your thoughts. (About one minute.)
LISTEN to God’s response. Simply rest in God’s presence with an open mind and an open heart.
(About four minutes.)
END each meditation by praying the Lord’s Prayer slowly and reverently.
