In this Centering Prayer practice, we observe six minutes of silence together, and close our prayer with the Coventry Litany of Reconciliation.
In centering prayer, we use a sacred word to gently hold our attention on the loving gaze of God. You are invited to find a word that comes naturally to you. This might be a name by which you address the Holy, a state such as love, peace, joy, or a short phrase such as "here I am" or "be still and know that I am God." You are invited to settle on your phrase and then to stay with it for the duration of your meditation.
Blessings as you pray.
Contemplative at Home offers guided meditative prayer - space to slow down and listen to the truth that is being born out of God's love for you today - drawing on Ignatian spirituality and at times, Lectio Divina.
