"Truly Helpful Prayer"Teaching Session 3Here's a recap of our third teaching session, led by Rev. Deb, which focused on the third line in the Truly Helpful Prayer, "I do not have to worry about what to say or what to do, because He Who sent me will direct me."
Session Highlights:
- Meditation with Rev. Deb Phelps: We began with our gentle meditation for this series, "I am here." This week Rev. Deb included ambient nature sounds and chimes with the meditation. We are simply present in the here and now as we connect with the Holy Spirit.
- Discussion on the "Truly Helpful" Prayer: Rev. Deb recapped what we have studied so far including highlighting the previous week's readings. Rev. Deb and Rev. Paul shared personal reflections and stories highlighting the transformative power of trusting in the Holy Spirit's Guidance.
- Exploring the Prayer's Third Line: The focus was on understanding and embodying the third line of the prayer. This includes basic key principles in receiving Holy Spirit's Voice: Willingness, Forgiveness, Quieting the Mind, Asking for Guidance, Patience and Practice as just a few.
- Reflection and Journaling Exercise: We delved into the third line of the prayer, engaging in a reflective exercise designed to deepen our understanding and personal connection to its message.
- Reading Assignment: To prepare for our next session, we encourage you to read The Song of Prayer, 2. Forgiveness, III. Forgiveness-for-Salvation.
Homework Assignments:
- Reflection on the Third Sentence: Continue to ponder the third sentence of the prayer. Allow its meaning to resonate with you throughout the week.
- Practice the "I am here" Meditation: Regularly engage in the meditation shared by Rev. Deb to enhance your presence and awareness.
- The Optional Assignment: If you chose to work with the previous optional assignment, focusing on being helpful to someone in your life, consider what comes to you now as to what to say and what to do in this situation? Trust the direction from Holy Spirit.
- Read: Gain further insights by reading the assigned chapter, which will be the basis for our next week's discussion with our facilitators.
This third teaching session had us reflect on how to be a representative of divine love and service. You are always welcome to join us.
