Contemplation
Be still and know that I am God! (Psalm 46:10; NLT).
Stand in silence in the presence of the Sovereign LORD (Zephaniah 1:7; NLT).
Be silent before the LORD, all humanity (Zechariah 2:13; NLT).
Lord,
With every in-breath,
I turn to you,
Opening my heart
To absorb your love.
And with every out-breath,
I whisper your name,
Letting go of my thoughts,
And turning back to you.
Again and again, like this,
I turn to you,
Letting go of my thoughts,
Opening my heart,
Whispering your name,
And absorbing your love –
Until it’s time
To face the day ahead,
With you.
